The BTT definition file merging tools provide you a function to merge separate dse configuration file sets into one. Each configuration file set contains the following five files: dsectxt.xml, dsedata.xml, dsefmts.xml, dsetype.xml, and des.ini. By using the merge function of the BTT self-defined file export wizard, you can generate a single set of dse configuration files. Each file in this set contains all of the definitions in different transactions. For example, if dsedata.xml in transaction A contains "field1"; dsedata.xml in transaction B contains "field2"; and dsedata.xml in transaction C contains "field3", then the output file generated by the export wizard will contain "field1", "field2", and "field3".
The following graph shows the how the definition file merging tools work:
