Creating and deleting new libraries
Answer
04/06/14 08:47
Hey there,

I am trying to make my first steps in the ADOxx environment and started to read the provided documentations.
First question: is there a simple way to create a new library? The only way I found so far - and reading the administration manual didn't help me at all - to create a new library is to export a existing one and to import it right away.

Another question: I replicated a existing library using the way described above and tried to delete the existing classes in the dynamic library to come up with new classes for test purposes from scratch which ended up in a bunch of error messages because somehow other classes were still refering to now not longer existing classes.

So I tried to remove the corrupted library completely which doesn't work either. I attached a few screenshots, I hope someone can help me remove these error messages.

Best regards,
David

Dear David,

I) NEW EMPTY LIBRARY
please download the 'Getting Started Package' on our download page at www.adoxx.org. This package contains information of starting ADOxx as well as an empty library, which you can always use to start a new project:
1a) Download package at http://www.adoxx.org/live/download for the version you are using (the package download can be found below the software packages)
1b) In addition to the package, you can also find the empty library in the installation directory of ADOxx           (%PROGRAM_FILES%\BOC\ADOxx13UL1\). The filename is "adostd.abl"
2) Import the library using the development toolkit (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcI1eSfoVT4 for assistance)
3) OPTIONAL: if you want to debug the new library, create a new user (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak4u155GU5M)



II) CORRUPTED LIBRARY
It seems that during the delete operation the library was corrupted in the database and the delete operation (which triggers a load before) is not possible since the state of the library has been not successfully updated. In order to fix that, work on the database level has to be performed to fix this issue and remove it manually (in case you are within a hosted environment such as the OMILAB, please contact the technical administrator of the database). Alternatively you can re-create the database (if you have a local installation on your PC) using the installer of the downloaded package, and import/export the functional libraries using the development toolkit functionality.In case you need further assistance on the database problem in the hosted environment, please do not hesitate to contact us anytime.

Dear Mehmet,

thank you for the given advise!
I already figured out that creating a new library is done by importing a empty library, is just kept searching for a "Create new library" button in the beginning. However, thanks a lot!

Regarding the database problem: I decided to take my first steps just ingoring the error messages until I feel comfortable and ready enough to support a further implementation of the MEMO OrgML. When I am at this point, I am going to contact the technical administrator of the database to reinstall the database from scratch.

Best regards, David
