The IBM® Rational® Tau schema
is automatically generated using the predefined schema built from
the Rational Tau metamodel.
Before you begin
To build Rational Tau documents,
you must be familiar with the metamodel structure and its relationship
to the model that is displayed in Rational Tau model
browser.
About this task
A pre-generated Rational Tau schema
is shipped with Rational Publishing Engine in %RPE_HOME%\source\Tau\schema.
You might regenerate the XML Schema in following instances:
- To use a new version of Rational Tau later
than 4.3
- To use a version of Rational Tau with
a modified meta model
- To adapt the schema to extend or customize it
- To provide better support for profiles
- To add schema elements that refer to your Rational Tau queries
- To speed up extraction by enhancing the queries Rational Tau is
using
- To make changes to the Rational Tau Schema,
you must adapt the script that generates the schema
The script
GenerateSchema.tcl is provided
in the
Rational Publishing Engine install
directory under
source\Tau\schema.
Procedure
- Start Rational Tau with
an UML project.
- Click and load the script file.
- In the model browser, select the Model class
from .
- In the Tools menu, invoke the Execute
script and run GenerateSchema.tcl. The
script displays a dialog to query the filename for the new XML Schema.
