Chapter 6 Generating a Conceptual Data Model from an Object-Oriented Model

Translating OOM data types for a CDM

PowerDesigner supports both Java and conceptual data types. When you generate objects from an OOM to a CDM, Java data types are translated by PowerDesigner into conceptual data types. PowerDesigner conceptual data types cannot be modified.
