To create a new database, user leverages the 'Export' feature of HSQLDB

a. Create your data model and when done, click the 'Database Connections' icon as shown below:

b. In the DB connection settings dialog box, enter information as shown below (in this case, 'centerice' is the new data model name and that is also the default name of the underlying HSQLDB we are creating). Because this is the very first time we create this database, we need to check "Is New HSQL Database" checkbox! Click 'Export' will bring the DDL for dropping tables (if applicable) and table creation script for user to verify. Just click OK to proceed with exporting the data model. See the second screen shot below.

b. You need to go to the generated data services subdirectory and manually add one property to the property file .properties as shown in step c. below.

d. Then, you open your project as usual and bring up the Database Connection Settings dialog box. You will see something like the following. Note: please leave the 'Is New HSQL Database?' checkbox unchecked.

e. Click 'Save'. This will update the system's property to point to your newly imported project's web app root and therefore the new HSQLDB directory. Note: you do NOT need to do anything in this dialog box, just clicking the 'Save' button will fulfill your needs to update properties. You are all set and ready to go. f. For projects exported with the current version of WaveMaker studio 5.0, user can skip the manual steps b. and c and go straight to step d. to update the db connection settings as described in e.
