![]() Answer: James: A 'model' is the name we give to describe the "business logic" for SYNERGY/CM; in other words, what are the states, roles, security rules, etc... When SYNERGY/CM is delivered to the customer, Telelogic provide a default model (or base model) that decribes the basic behaviour for all CM databases -- hence the 'base.cpk' file ;-) If a customer wishes to customize the behaviour of SYNERGY/CM, they *can* customize the model (because Telelogic provides the source to the model), and create your own 'customized' model. Customized models require AcCent programming languages skills (Telelogic's propriatary language), which most customers are not familiar. Technical support will not provide support for customized models, so it's not recommended. Telelogic also *strongly* recommends against customizing the base model, as the need for customization is no longer required in most cases (i.e. there are now many better ways to solve the business problem in the current releases of the product) I hope this helps. | |
