Generate sets
The Generate Sets option can be accessed in the System node - Right hand panel:
- In the Transaction Configuration node - Right hand panel (Generate data function sets, Generate transaction end point sets, Generate transaction end point sets and Generate excluded items sets buttons)
- In the Built-in parameters node - Right hand panel using the Generate data record object sets / Generate ignored tables
- In the By naming, By inheritance, By type nodes - Right hand panel using the right click short-cut menu (Generate set or Generate all sets)
- In the Free definition - Right hand panel using the right click short cut menu on a Set (either in the upper panels or in the Design panel - Generate set or Generate all sets))
What does it do?
The Generate Sets option will launch the CAST Transaction Configuration Center algorithm and a list of objects that match the sets will be displayed:
This can help you determine if the set you have created will detect all the objects you require.
Notes:
- See also Why are objects external to the Application visible as Transaction End Points?
- When using the option via the right click short-cut menu in the By naming, By inheritance, By type nodes - Right hand panel and in the Free definition - Right hand panel you can Generate Sets for one set in the list (Generate Set) or for all sets in the list (Generate all sets):
- When two sets have been created with identical rules/criteria so that they capture the same objects, when the Generate all sets option is used, only one of the sets will be used and the other will be ignored.
