Database Import Wizard

The server component of ZoomFlex contains a wizard that can import legacy database applications and create Flex based data administration wizards in a few minutes. Users simply need to define a datasource connection to the legacy database through the ColdFusion administrator (most common databases are supported) then use the import table wizard in ShadoCMS.

  1. Define a connection to your legacy database in the ColdFusion Administrator.
  2. Import the table into the Shado object framework as a Class.


  3. Map fields to match default ShadoCMS object class fields.

  4. Your legacy table(s) will be imported as a Shado Class which then has all the benefits of inheriting from the core Shado Object and will contain all the required CFC's and Flex Libraries available for instant use.

  5. Import the generated ZoomFlex files into Flex Builder (or use the integrated compiler) to instantly generate your Flex data management interface.
