DBD Generation

To generate DBDs, add them to your project and then build the project from the IDE. The build process generates the DBD files first.

Generating a DBD updates the following files:

These files contain DBD source information that has been extracted and formatted into a smaller structure optimized for faster access during execution. The .dat files files are indexed files and can contain one or more generated DBD members.

The dbdgen*.* and dbdname.acb files are created in the directory specified in your project properties, on the IMS tab in the Generated files field. If no directory is specified there, the files are created in the project directory.
Note: When you deploy your application to an enterprise server, you must provide the enterprise server with the location of the generated files. See To specify the location of generated files for instructions.
