1718.0. "Insert a new DOMAIN in iconic map?" by KAOFS::BOIVIN (Moi, j'viens du nord!) Fri Oct 25 1991 09:33

Good day,

I've created a few domains (with 1 sub-domain in each) using the iconic map. I
now find that I want to insert another level of domains:

		 _______Top level domain________
		/	   |			 \	 <------+       
	Domain1		Domain2			Domain3		|
	/		   |			  \ 		|     
       /		   |			   \		|
   Domain1.1		Domain2.1		Domain3.1	|
								|
	
In effect, I want to insert a new domain between the top level domain and
Domain3 (and have the current Domain3 as a subdomain of my newly created domain).

I've tried the COPY operation on the ICONIC map but it only copies 5 or 6
entities to the new domain (I have about 20). I also tried renaming the .MCC_MAP
file to the new domain (using the MCC_domainname.MCC_MAP syntax) but again, not all
the entities get moved over.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Ed

1718.3	Look for command file to copy domains	BSYBEE::EGOLF	John C. Egolf LKG2-2/T02 x226-7874	`Tue Oct 29 1991 21:42`	7
	In V1.1 there are some known problems copying Domains. I've created a command file to act as a work-around solution until V1.2 comes out and solves the problem in the proper way. Look for it posted previously in this conference. JCE
1718.4	To insert a domain into a hierarchy level does not require a copy command .	TOOK::A_MOORE		`Wed Dec 18 1991 17:59`	18
	To insert a domain into a hierarchy does not require a copy command. In the example in .1 Delete domain top_level_domain member Domain 3 ! breaks the hierarchy. Create domain top_level_domain member new_domain ! Inserts New domain Create domain new_domain member Domain_3 ! adds rest of tree This will be much quicker. In Iconic Map MB1 on toolbox single bar delete, click on Domain_3 MB1 on toolbox Domain, drop new_domain Double click into new_domain MB1 on toolbox Domain, drop Domain_3 Al Moore
