Select Output Options
The fourth step in using the DOM Wizard is to select the output options for your project. Below is a list of all the options and how these options help you customize your project.
Enumeration Qualifiers are simply prefixes to the names of the generated enumerations. It is a common practice to prefix enumerations to help the developer quickly identify an enumerate type.
Stored Procedure Qualifiers are also prefixes to the names of the generated stored procedures. The DOM Wizard will generate stored procedures for your table access. You will find it easier to identify these generated stored procedures from your custom stored procedures if you set a qualifier.
Select Generate Sample Application and a working sample application based on your database will be created for you. The sample application will demonstrate some of the basics of how to use your newly generated DOM code. It is also a great way to jump start your development and immediately see how quickly the DOM Wizard will make your development faster and easier.
Select Launch Sample Application After Generation to automatically start the sample project. It will make it easier for you to quickly see the results of the generation. If you choose not to launch the sample application, you can find it in the SampleApplication folder within your output folder.
Select Execute SQL Scripts to automatically run the SQL scripts on your database. Your database user enter in Step 2 must have permission to add and remove stored procedures from the database. The stored procedures are always saved to the SQLScripts.sql file in your output folder regardless of whether you choose to execute your SQL scripts. You may use the SQLScripts.sql file to more easily deploy your DOM code to other environments.
The Output Folder is where all your DOM project code will be written. By default, the output folder will be within your My Documents\DOM Projects\<database_name>
