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.
