Comments

To ensure object performance, specify a data source in one of the following properties: Source, SqlSource, or TableSource. Depending on the executed operations, the following steps are available:

To update data of an existing MDM dictionary:

Determine an MDM dictionary in the Dictionary property.
Bind dictionary attributes to data source fields in the Bindings property.
Call the Load method to load data.

To create a new MDM dictionary and load data to it:

Bind dictionary attributes to data source fields in the Bindings property. Attributes may be omitted in binding parameters, in this case they will be created later. Depending on the data source, the bindings may be set using the GenerateBindingsBySource method.
Determine information about the created dictionary, specify the parent object. If the dictionary is created in other location than MDM repository, it is also necessary to define the Database property.
Call the CreateObject method and pass information on the created dictionary as the method parameter.
Save dictionary which will return the CreateObject method.
Call the Load method to load data.

NOTE. MDM dictionaries can be automatically created and updated in the repositories based on Oracle 9.x or later, and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 or later.
