Drag-and-drop in the Portus View

The Portus View incorporates extensive drag-and-drop support to copy between servers, and even to rearrange elements within a server environment.

The following operations are possible

Driver definition as a drag source

Dragging a driver to the Services element of another server

will copy the driver definition as well as all services defined using this driver, along with all definition files ((Business)DataViews, XSDs, XSLs)

Service(s) can simply be copied from one server to another.

the service(s) will be copied along with all definition files ((Business)DataViews, XSDs, XSLs)

Note: The source and target drivers must be of the same type, otherwise an error message will be thrown.

In order to change the driver used for a service, just drag-and-drop the service as required.

(Business)DataViews can be dropped as follows

A DataView or BusinessDataView dropped on a service will replace the respective view currently used by that service.

This can either be a View located on the same server as the service, or one to be copied from a different server.

Note: The service needs to be refreshed after this change, otherwise the WSDL will still reflect the previous state of the service.

The (Business)DataView will be copied from one server to another
