Imports the population of an edmModel located in a local EDMdatabase into a remote EDMdatabase. If the remote edmModel exists, it may be overwritten or have its population incremented by that of the imported local edmModel. If the underlying Express Schema of the local edmModel does not exist in the remote EDMdatabase, it may optionally be uploaded from the local EDMdatabase.

Arguments

Type	Name	Comment
SdaiServerContext	serverContextId	Context identification, from edmiDefineServerContext
SdaiString	remoteRepositoryName	The name of the edmRepository in the remote EDMdatabase that contains or shall eventually contain the edmModel specified by the argument <remoteModelName>. Repository names are case sensitive.
SdaiString	remoteModelName	The name of the edmModel to create, update or overwrite in the remote EDMdatabase . Model names are case sensitive.
SdaiString	localRepositoryName	The name of the edmRepository in the local EDMdatabase that contains the edmModel to import into the remote EDMdatabase . Repository names are case sensitive.
SdaiString	localModelName	The name of the edmModel in the local EDMdatabase to import into the remote EDMdatabase . Model names are case sensitive.
SdaiString	diagnosticFile	The name of an optional file that will receive the diagnostic information resulting from importing the population of the edmModel. If this argument is NULL, the diagnostics will be written to the EDMinterface current output device. The EDMinterface current output device can be defined by the edmiDefineOutputFunction operation
SdaiString	remoteSchemaName	The name of the Express Schema in the remote EDMdatabase to be used as base for the imported data. If this Express Schema does not exist in the remote EDMdatabase, it may be automatically uploaded by using one of the options UPLOADING_SCHEMA_IF_REQUIRED or UPLOADING_SCHEMA
SdaiUnsignedInt	options	See list of available options below. Options may be combined by the bitwise OR operator.
SdaiInteger	nWarnings	Variable that will receive the number of warnings resulting from the importing of the edmModel
SdaiInteger	nErrors	Variable that will receive the number of errors resulting from the importing of the edmModel
EdmiError	sdaiError	Variable that will receive any EDMinterface error code resulting from the imported data it self. System errors in general will not be returned in this variable.
SdaiInvocationId	edmiInvocationId	Currently not used.

Return Value

Error rendering macro 'excerpt-include' : User 'null' does not have permission to view the page 'US:_r_EDMInterface'.

Options

Option	Comment
DELETING_EXISTING_MODEL	If the edmModel that is specified by the argument <remoteModelName> already exists it will be deleted and recreated before the local edmModel is imported.
DELETE_INSTANCES_WITH_REFS	If an edmModel is implicitly created, this option will disable one of the models built in features, thereby improving its data manipulation performance. This option enables deletion of referenced instances without removing of the references them selves. Use this option with extreme care. Never on models that are meant to remain persistent in the EDMdatabase . This option may lead to inconsistent populations containing references to non existing instances.
DELETE_INSTANCE_REFS_ON_DELETE	If an edmModel is implicitly created, this option will disable one of the models built in features, thereby improving its data manipulation performance. This option causes all external references to an instance to be deleted automatically when the instance it self is deleted. Use this option with care. Preferably not on models that are meant to remain persistent in the EDMdatabase .
UNPACKED_MODEL	No garbage collection for the edmModel when data is freed on data deletion or data change. The disk space used for the actual edmModel will normally increase. This option can influence the system performance.
USER_CONTROLLED_INVERSE	If an edmModel is implicitly created, this option will disable one of the models built in features, thereby improving its data manipulation performance. This option prevents automatic update and maintenance of the INVERSE attributes in the actual model. Use this option with care. Preferably not on models that are meant to remain persistent in the EDMdatabase .
NO_INSTANCE_REFERENCES	If an edmModel is implicitly created, this option will disable one of the models built in features, thereby improving its data manipulation performance. This option prevents the creation and maintenance of "instance references tables". As a result of this, the following operations will not work: The built in function USEDIN. The EDMinterface operations: edmiUsedIn, edmiUsedInBN, and edmiGetInstanceReferences The ExpressX function xpxGetInstanceReferences Use this option with care. Preferably not on models that are meant to remain persistent in the EDMdatabase .
LOG_TO_STDOUT	Any logged information will be written to the EDMinterface current output device. The EDMinterface current output device can be defined by the edmiDefineOutputFunction operation.
ADD_TO_EXISTING_MODEL	The population of the imported local edmModel will be added to the population of the existing remote edmModel. The imported data must be based on the same underlying Express Schema as that of the existing edmModel. This option enables merging of populations from two or more edmModels.
LOG_TO_FILE	Any logged information will be stored in the file specified by the <diagnosticFile> argument.
DELETING_EXISTING_SCHEMAS	If the option UPLOADING_SCHEMA is used and the Express Schema already exists in the remote EDMdatabase, the remote Express Schema will be overwritten by that used for the local edmModel.
UPLOADING_SCHEMA	The Express Schema used for the edmModel in the local EDMdatabase, will be uploaded to the remote EDMdatabase. Use the option DELETING_EXISTING_SCHEMAS if you want to overwrite an existing remote version of the Express Schema.
UPLOADING_SCHEMA_IF_REQUIRED	The Express Schema used for the edmModel in the local EDMdatabase, will be uploaded to the remote EDMdatabase , but only if it does not already exist.
LOG_ERRORS_AND_WARNINGS_ONLY	Limits the logging to include nothing but the instances that generate errors or warnings.
