OMBCOPY

Purpose

Copy one or more objects of the same object type. The replace option allows you to overwrite.

Prerequisites

Use of relative path specifications requires awareness of the current context.

Syntax

parseCopyCommand =  OMBCOPY "copyObjectType" "QUOTED_STRING" { ( OPERATOR |
           GROUP | ATTRIBUTE ) "QUOTED_STRING" } TO "QUOTED_STRING" { ( OPERATOR
           | GROUP | ATTRIBUTE ) "QUOTED_STRING" } [ USE REPLACE_MODE ]
     copyObjectType =  ( "UNQUOTED_STRING" )

Parameters

parseCopyCommand

Specifies the source object type, source path, and target path for the object to copy. Copying objects is subject to the following restrictions: 1. You cannot copy an entire project. 2. When copying objects between projects, you can only copy objects into the current project; you cannot copy objects out to other projects.

QUOTED_STRING

Source and target path specifications can be absolute or relative. To copy multiple objects, include a regular expression as the final step of the source path. If you are copying multiple objects, the final step of the target path must be the folder to which the objects are being copied. If you are only copying one object, you can specify the object's original name or a new name as the final step of the target path.

REPLACE_MODE

Use this option to overwrite existing target objects.
