CH APTER 6  SQL SERVER MODELING SERVICES – THE FOLDER PATTERN 141 How do you modify this code to add a folder value? Folders are provided by the Repository.Item model, so you’ll add an import directive for Repository.Item. Next you’ll add a Folder value to the CarComponent type definition, ascribed to the FoldersTable type: This is shown in Figure 6-2. Figure 6-2. Adding the Folder value, showing two reference errors But there’s a hitch: The M compiler is unable to resolve the Repository.Item model and FoldersTable type references. You need to specifically add a reference to the Repository.Item model, which, as it turns out, is contained in the Repository.dll file. Adding a reference to the Repository.dll file must be done in the context of a Visual Studio project, and Intellipad provides a way of doing this: 1. Expand the Intellipad window horizontally to make room for a split window by dragging the right edge of the window to the right (see Figure 6-3). 2. Click on the View tab of the Intellipad window. 3. Select the Split Vertically option. This will split the Intellipad window vertically into two M mode panes, each with the same M code as appeared before the split.

Splitting the Intellipad window vertically to allow room for opening a new project Now you can add the new project: 1. Click the File tab of the Intellipad window. 2. Select the New Project option (as shown in Figure 6-4). 3. A Save Project As dialog box will pop up to allow you to name the new project file to be saved. Enter a project filename of CarModelWithFolder (see Figure 6-5). This will display a new project template in the right pane (see Figure 6-6). Figure 6-4. Adding a new project. (Right pane has focus.)

New project (right pane) The new project file is based on a generic template, and includes a single generic M file (Model.m under the MCompile section) and a number of models under the Reference section. These are all models provided in the SSMod Services Base Domain Library (BDL). I’ll say more about the BDL in the next chapter. Note that the Reference section doesn’t include a reference to Repository, and the CarModelWithFolder.m file is not included in the MCompile section. So the project is initialized as a generic project from a template, and has nothing to do with the model you are working with. Model.m is a placeholder code file, which could be used to flesh out the code you actually want for the domain Download from Wow! eBook <www.wowebook.com> CHAPTER 6  SQL SERVER MODELING SERVICES – THE FOLDER PATTERN 144 model definition file. Figure 6-7 shows the generic Model.m code after being created as a result of setting up the new project. Figure 6-7. Generic Model.m file created with the new project file Note that the module is named the same as the M code file that was loaded in Intellipad at the time you created the project, but it doesn’t reflect the code in that file. If you had started by creating the project file first, then using the Model.m file as the starting point for building the model code, this would have worked just as well. Intellipad, however, currently provides no facility for renaming the M file within the project file. If you’ve been following along with this example by executing the steps in Intellipad, you may have noticed that the configuration text in the project file is read-only and can’t be modified in this view. You can, however, add the CarModelWithFolder.m file to the project file by clicking the Project menu and selecting the Add Project File option, as shown in Figure 6-8. Figure 6-8. Setting up to add the CarModelWithFolder.m file to the MCompile section of the project file This will bring up an Open file dialog box, as shown in Figure 6-9.

Selecting the CarModelWithFolder.m file to add to the MCompile section of the project file This will add the M file under the MCompile section of the project (see Figure 6-10). Figure 6-10. CarModelWithFolder.m file added to the MCompile section of the project file Although you now have the desired CarModelWithFolder.m included in the project, you also still have the unwanted baggage of the Model.m file in this section. Here are the steps you can take to remove it: 1. Click on the Project menu and select Toggle Project View. 2. This displays the project file in XML format. Unlike the read-only Project view, the XML view can be edited. Download from Wow! eBook <www.wowebook.com> CHAPTER 6  SQL SERVER MODELING SERVICES – THE FOLDER PATTERN 146 3. Figure 6-11 is the result. I’ve highlighted the line for Model.m under the <ItemGroup> tag. 4. Highlight and delete this line. 5. Toggle again to the normal Project Mode view. 6. Save the project file with Ctrl+S, or by using the File  Save menu option. Figure 6-11. Project mode in XML with Model.m line highlighted Figure 6-12 shows the result. Figure 6-12. CarModelWithFolder project with the updated MCompile section (bottom of right pane) You can see that the resolution errors for Repository.Item and Folders.Table are still occurring, so what’s been done so far hasn’t fixed this situation. You want to add a reference for the Repository.Item Download from Wow! eBook <www.wowebook.com> CH APTER 6  SQL SERVER MODELING SERVICES – THE FOLDER PATTERN 147 model under the Reference section of the project definition. Repository.Item (and other SSMod Services models) is defined in the Repository.dll file. This file resides in the bin folder where the SQL Server Modeling framework is installed on your computer. The default path for this file, assuming a standard installation for the SSMod software, is normally C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\Repository.dll. (If your instance of SQL Server Modeling was installed to a different path, you will need to make the appropriate adjustment in what follows to point to the folder where Repository.dll resides.) To add this reference, click again on the Project menu, and select the Add Project Reference option (see Figure 6-13). Figure 6-13. Adding the project reference for Repository.dll Navigate to the location of the Repository.dll file, select that file, and click the Open button (shown in Figure 6-14). Figure 6-14.

Figure 6-15. Adding Repository.dll as a reference in the project file fixes the resolution errors. Now that Repository.Item and FoldersTable can be resolved in the M code, make sure the cursor is in the right pane and use Ctrl+S to save the project file again. (This should save it as the CarModelWithFolder.csproj in the same folder where the CarModelWithFolder.m M code file is located.) The next step is to deploy the model to SQL Server. This time you’ll use Visual Studio 2010, rather than Quadrant, to deploy. Start by opening SQL Server, and select Open Project (see Figure 6-16). Figure 6-16.
