Exporting AppWorx objects

The following procedure describes how to export AppWorx objects.

For more details about exporting objects, see the AppWorx Administration Guide.

To Export AppWorx objects:

  1. In the Export window of your AppWorx environment, select the objects you want to convert to Control-M.
  2. Move the selected objects to the Objects to be exported area.
  3. Select the Reference tab, which contains a list of all dependencies that are required.
  4. Select the dependencies and move them to the Objects to be exported area.
  5. Click Export.

    The file is saved as an .exp file.

  6. Open the .exp file with an editing tool.
  7. If the .exp file contains CHECK L or CHECK M return to the AppWorx environment and manually search for the missing objects and add these and its references to Objects to be exported.

    NOTE: At the beginning of the .exp file there is a list of objects starting with “CHECK”, which indicates a missing object.

    EXAMPLE:

    CHECK M xxx: missing Module xxx.

    CHECK L xxx: missing Library xxx.

  8. After manually adding the Libraries or Modules to the Objects to be exported area, repeat steps 5 to 7.
  9. The .exp file is now ready to be converted to Control-M.

    EXAMPLE 1:

    If you see “CHECK M module_XXX” in the .exp file, in the AppWorx environment, select Object Type and chose Modules. In the Search bar, type the module name, “module_XXX” and then click >> to add it to the Objects to be exported area.

    EXAMPLE 2:

    If you see “CHECK L library_XXX” in the. exp file, in the AppWorx environment, select Object Type and chose Libraries. In the Search bar, type the library name, “library_XXX” and then click >> add it to Objects to be exported area.
