9.4 Exporting System Wide Changes

If you have customized the default layout, you may need to export some or all of these Web components:

  • DEFAULT_LAYOUT
  • DEFAULT_LMENU for the left menu component
  • DEFAULT_LMENU1 for the standard menu component
  • DEFAULT_LMENU2 for the DHTML left menu component
  • DEFAULT_RMENU for the right menu component
  • DEFAULT_HMENU for the horizontal menu component
  • DEFAULT_HMENU1 for the standard horizontal menu component
  • DEFAULT_HMENU2 for the DHTML horizontal menu component
  • DEFAULT_STYLE for banner components used in layouts
  • STDBANNER for the default banner component.

DEFAULT_LMENU1, DEFAULT_LMENU2, DEFAULT_HMENU1 and DEFAULT_HMENU2 are specific to the Web Functions Wizard and are not supported in standard LANSA Web function applications.

Warning: Use extreme care when exporting the DEFAULT browse list variables as these values may impact other Web function applications running in your target system.

 

Remember, you must create Web page component definitions for the default layout pages and menu component pages before you can add these pages to your export list. A quick method of exporting all of your DEFAULT pages is to create a dummy process named DEFAULT. When you export the DEFAULT process, all the DEFAULT_<component> Web components are automatically exported with the process and you do not need to register the Web components.

Before you import these default layouts into another partition or system, be sure to review Impact on Existing Applications.

Remember, you do not have to export any system wide graphic variables unless you are planning to import into a partition in a different LANSA system. If you are moving to a different system, you may need to export some or all of these variables:

*LW3COLOR1

*LW3COLOR1 is specific to the Web Functions Wizard and is not supported in standard LANSA Web function applications.

 

Again, if you are moving your LANSA application to another partition in your current LANSA system, then you do not have to export any graphic variables made by the Wizard because the graphic variables are defined at the system level.
