Migration of models

There are three different ways to migrate an Aspect Model:

  • Automatic migration when starting the application.

  • Initiate migration from the sidebar.

  • Loading a (syntactically valid) Aspect Model based on an older BAMM version

Automatic migration when starting the application

As soon as the application is started and an Aspect Model with an older version is found in the workspace. A dialog appears with the information whether the Aspect Models should be migrated.

automatic migration

  • If the checkbox Auto-increase namespace versions is activated, the Aspect Models are updated to the next higher version and the old Aspect Models are no longer displayed in the workspace.

  • If the checkbox Auto-increase namespace versions is not activated, the Aspect Models will be overwritten without the version of the Aspect Models increasing.

A backup of the old Aspect Models will be created in the workspace as a zip package.

After the migration has been completed, the Aspect models can be modelled as usually.

Initiate migration from the sidebar

If the migration of the Aspect Models in the workspace is to be carried out later, this can be cancelled for the first time. A migration button is provided in the sidebar below /within? the workspace to start a pending migration.

Loading a (syntactically valid) Aspect Model based on an olders BAMM version

A migration of an Aspect Model in an old version can also be loaded as usual. The tool automatically recognises the older version and migrates it to the latest BAMM version.
