Chapter 3 Managing Object-Oriented Models

OOM check options

When you check an OOM, if a parameter is found to be invalid, it can be displayed with one of two types of messages:

Message Description

Error

Warning

Major problem that impedes Java or PowerBuilder generation

Minor problem or recommendation

These messages represent two different levels of problem severity. You can modify the level of problem severity for each object parameter that is verified by the Check model. This severity level can depend on the degree of normalization that you want to achieve in a your model.

You can also have certain problems automatically corrected.

Indicating error severity

You can use the following tools from the Check Model Parameters dialog box to indicate either an error or warning level of problem severity, and also if you want PowerDesigner to automatically correct an error:
