Allows you to review differences between the tool map schema and the tool metadata database. You can select an action to resolve the difference.
Class - Specifies the class definition for the object that is inconsistently defined in the tool map schema and the tool metadata database. For example, if an enumerated list definition has the inconsistency, the class is SPMapEnumDef.
Parent Name - Specifies the parent object for the for the object that is inconsistently defined. For map enumerations, the parent object is the map enumerated list. For map units of measure, the parent object is the map unit of measure list, and for map properties, the parent object is the map class. For all other map objects, this column is blank.
Name - Specifies the name of the object that is inconsistently defined.
Property - Specifies the name of the property that is inconsistently defined, if the inconsistency is on a property.
<Tool> Database - Specifies a change that you want to make in the tool database. For example, you can choose to delete an object that does not exist in the tool map schema or set a value for an existing property to the value defined in the tool map schema. If the action in this column is selected (blue) when you click OK, the tool database is updated with the selected action.
You can only delete objects for authoring tools that allow deletion in the metadata
database. If you click a Delete action in the <Tool> Database column for an authoring tool that does not support deletions, the Schema Editor displays
a message box to let you know that you cannot select that action. For more information
about rules for additions and deletions using metadata adapters, see Mapping with Metadata Adapters.
<Tool Map Schema Path> - Specifies a change that you want to make in the tool map schema. For example, you can choose to add a missing object that exists in the tool metadata database to the tool map schema or set a value for an existing property in the tool map schema to the value defined in the tool metadata database. If the action in this column is selected (blue) when you click OK, the tool map schema is updated with the selected action.
For example, the following graphic shows two selected updates that the software will make to property descriptions in the tool map schema when the user clicks OK:
-
Change the description of the 3-way ball valve property in the tool map schema from "3-way ball valve" to "6Q1C08" to match the value currently defined in the tool metadata database
-
Change the description of the 3-way fire hydrant in the tool map schema from "6Q4C13" to "3-way ball valve" to match the value currently defined in the tool metadata database
Save Extensions - Saves the meta schema extensions added by the metadata adapter to an XML file.
Save Metadata - Saves metadata to an XML file.
Save to Excel - Saves the contents of the Synchronize dialog box to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.
