Details
Here this page is explained by taking an example for Sybase, however this is valid for Oracle, MS SQL server, DB 2 as well.
In Delivery Manager Tool, we have two option for the extraction:
- CAST Extraction for Sybase
- Reuse existing CAST delivery output
With 1st option i.e. CAST Extraction for Sybase: The .castextraction is inside the sources.CastSourcePackage of delivery folder.To get this you need to unzip it and it is inside the Meta Folder
For example : sources.CastSourcePackage is placed at :
XXXXX\Delivery\CAST\CASTMS\Delivery\data{c6a7175d-8735-4acc-8df0-56b50fe44be3}{9b6e65d7-38bc-4d17-9763-e51ea91a6cca}{6ff73ff5-7280-422b-8465-32a6e4daebb2}\
After Unzip, It is can at:
XXXXX\Delivery\CAST\CASTMS\Delivery\data{c6a7175d-8735-4acc-8df0-56b50fe44be3}{9b6e65d7-38bc-4d17-9763-e51ea91a6cca}{6ff73ff5-7280-422b-8465-32a6e4daebb2}\sources\meta\squirrel.castextraction
With 2nd option i.e. Reuse existing CAST delivery output: The .castextarction is not created in sources.CastSourcePackage and hence not in Delivery folder.
You can retrieve these .castextraction files on the machine where you have run the Extraction/delivery processing.
The default location is : C:\Documents and Settings
Note:
Delivery folder is also fetched with Sherlock, but to get the sources.CastSourcePackage, you need to make sure to select the option : “Allow export source code” as shown below.
