BladeManager

You use BladeManager to register or unregister your module in a database and to install or uninstall module client files.

After you install a module on a database server, you must register it in every database that uses the module. Registration involves executing the SQL scripts to create objects in the database and making the shared object or dynamic link library available to the database server.

BladeManager checks for dependencies between modules. If you have imported an interface from another module, BladeManager registers your module only after it confirms that the interface is registered in the database.

If you are upgrading your module, BladeManager automatically unregisters the previous version.

You can also unregister any module by using BladeManager. BladeManager does not allow you to unregister a module if there is another module that depends on it or if any of its objects are in use by the database.
