Exchanging Objects The last part of organizing a project is knowing how to import and export objects to share them with other projects. Oracle Data Integrator 11g: Integration and Administration 6 - * Exporting and Importing The following slides discuss the solution to several problems that can arise. You cannot drag-and-drop objects between projects. For example, you may want to copy an interface from one project to another. Similarly, you may want to send an object you have developed to a colleague at a different site. Or, you may want to share an object between two repositories—for example, moving an object that was in development to a maintenance repository. The solution to these three problems is the same: exporting, and then reimporting. First, you export the object to an XML file. Then, you reimport the object into the other project. This other project can be in a different repository, or even at a different site. You will see how this is done in the next few slides. Oracle Data Integrator 11g: Integration and Administration 6 - * Exporting an Object To export an object, perform the following: 1. Right-click the object. In this example, you export an interface. However, you can export any object. 2. Select Export from the context menu. The Export window appears. 3. Specify the directory where you want to export the object. You can use the browse button to select the directory by navigating to it. 4. You must also specify the file name to export to. The .xml extension will automatically be added to it. 5. Some objects, such as folders, projects, and packages, can contain child objects. If you do not want these objects in the .xml file, deselect the “Child components export” check box. Though almost every object in ODI can be exported by using this method, there are exceptions. To export a Work repository, use the relevant option in the File menu in Designer Navigator.
