Configuration Manager
Dimension Designer's Configuration Manager is an editor which allows you to manage global connector information within your Designer workspace and customize your model extensions. Dimension comes with several standard connector types already defined in appropriate installation folders and a default FunctionDefinitions model. The connector information provided with your kit can be enhanced by your custom connectors and can be used for mutliple VDBs with multiple sources.
This section documents the following:
You can open the Configuration Manager either by selecting the VDB in the VDB Explorer and right-clicking the Open Configuration Manager action, or open the
Connector Bindings Editor and choose the link Open the configuration manager... in the Execute Status section.
The Configuration Manager editor contains two primary sections, Configuration and Extensions as shown below.
You can manager your connectors by importing a server configuration or connector bindings. You can use the import links at the top of the Connectors section or use the select-right-click menus to manager your connector.
You can extend your connector functionality by importing additional connector bindings. You can use the import links at the top of the Connection Modules section or use the select-right-click menus to manager your connector.
Editing User Defined Functions
You can edit your user-defined functions via the Configuration Manager. Just select the link Open the function model in the UDF Extension Modules section.
The Function Model should then be opened in an editor displaying the model's package diagram.
