Resolving all differences in merge sessions for SOA transformations

When you merge pending transformation changes with existing target content, you can resolve all differences in one action by accepting all changes from the generated target content.

About this task

To resolve all differences in a target file:

Procedure

  1. In the Target pane, click a file with differences to resolve. Files with differences are displayed with a change decorator. The file opens at the bottom of the window, with a pane for generated target content and a pane for existing target content.
  2. To accept all the changes from the Generated target content pane, click Copy All from Left to Right.
  3. Optional: To confirm that the merged target artifact complies with domain rules, click Validate.
  4. Optional: To undo the changes to the file up to the last save, click Revert the Last Saved Change.
  5. To save changes to the file, click Save.
  6. After all differences are incorporated in the target file, click Mark as Merged. You cannot end a merge session until you mark the changes as merged.
  7. Repeat these steps for each target artifact with differences to resolve.
    Note: Until you resolve all differences, the OK button is disabled. To accept partial changes in a merge session, resolve those changes; then right-click the root target artifact and click Mark as Merged.
  8. Click OK.

Results

The merge session is completed and the Merge the Transformation Output window closes.
