Object Templates
Previous  Top  Next

By using object templates, you can be sure you're always using the same structure, or get a head start when creating a new database object that contains source code.

The object templates are available for:
·Stored Procedures  
·Stored Functions  
·Views  
·Triggers  

Each of these templates can be editted in the Template Editor in the Preferences screen - there are templates available per server type.

Below is an example Stored Procedure template for InterBase:

/*
  Procedure:

  Author   :
  Date     :
  Purpose  :
  Params
  ------
  <param>  : <purpose>
*/
begin
  /* code */
end


By using templates like this, you can easily create a certain style of coding. From the Template Editor, you can tell Database Workbench to search the files for the templates on a network drive, so that multiple developers can use the same template.
