Model View

The primary purpose of the Model view is model exploration and to function as an alternative launching point for object and property editors. It lists all of the object types that appear in the current data model based on the model type and the target server.

For example, if the model type is Logical, the Model Explorer does not include physical objects such as a view. Similarly, if the model type is Physical, the Model Explorer does not include logical objects. If the target server is Oracle, then additional objects specific to Oracle display, such as Clusters.

Other objects that do not display are:

• Minor objects that are handled completely by the editors of the parent object. For example, a Valid Value object is created, deleted, and edited by the Validation Rule Editor.
• An object that represents configuration information that is stored by a CA ERwin Data Modeler process, and is not actual model data, such as a Complete Compare Option Set.
