Generating a new XML model from a PDM
You can generate an XML model from a PDM or from a package in a PDM.
PowerDesigner creates a new XML model containing all the objects that you
selected to generate in the XML model. The newly created XML model
appears in the browser and the corresponding diagram opens in the work
area.
You can only generate an XML model from the active PDM diagram.
To generate a new XML model from a PDM:
1 Select ToolsGenerate XML Model to display the XML Model
Generation Options dialog box.
2 Select Generate new XML Model radio button.
3 Type a name and a code for the new XML model, otherwise it will have
the same name and code as the PDM.
4 <optional> Click Configure Model Options to define the options of the
generated XML model.
