Register Version
Function Description
To use the version control function, you must first register the dataset for version control. The registration process is called versioning.
Registering a version must meet the following conditions:
- Only PostGIS, Yukon, KingBase, HighGoDB, and POLARDBGanosdatabase datasources are supported. Among them, datasets in a PostGIS datasource must not have a Transaction Lock when registering.
- Supported dataset types include: 2D point/line/region, 3D point/line/region, text, attribute table, CAD, network, and model. Among them, 3D model data does not support viewing historical changes.
- The dataset is not involved in creating a Relation Dataset.
- The database user must be a super user, or a regular user who owns the dataset.
A label will appear on the icon of a successfully registered dataset, such as the icon of a versioned region dataset:
. Editing non-versioned data is equivalent to a standard short-term transaction in the database and is not subject to version control.
In SuperMap iDesktopX 11i(2023) and later versions, the register version function is provided.
