Install components
A Component contains all the resources required to work on a given technology.
Some components are already installed by default in Semarchy xDI Designer but some other components must be installed afterwards.
Components contain resources such as:
-
Technology definitions
-
Metadata definitions

Templates

Modules

Sample projects

Certain components require a specific license. A component not included in your license can be installed, but will not be available in xDI Designer. |
