Issue with Java 6 update 26

Due to an issue in Java 6 update 26 the browse button on the Import and Export wizards will not popup the File select dialog. This bug is is solved as of Java 1.6.0 update 29.

Exporting a Solution

To export a solution:

  1. Select Export Solution from the context menu of the active solution node.

    • By default, Servoy uses the Servoy application_server/solutions folder on the local machine.
    • You can click the Browse button to specify a different location.
  3. Choose your export options. You can protect the solution with a password, and export the solution with referenced modules, tables, sample data, i18n data, and user groups.
  4. Click Next for additional options (if applicable to the options you selected).
  5. Click Finish. The file will be saved as a .servoy file.

Importing a Solution

To import a previously saved Servoy file to the current workspace:

  1. Select Import Solution from the context menu of the All Solutions node.
  2. Browse to the file location.
  3. Select your import options. These include:
    • Clean Import
    • Allow data model (database) changes
    • Activate solution after import
  4. Select the resources solution you want to use with the imported project.
  5. Click Finish. The imported solution will appear under the All solutions node and will become the currently active solution, if this option was selected.
