To create a feature class from an existing view

1. Create the view using any Oracle tool.

   Start the name with a prefix indicating the module, in addition to a prefix such as _V indicating that this is a view. For example, LM_V_.

2. In the Infrastructure Administrator, click Enterprise and connect to the enterprise industry model . Open a project.
3. In Data Model Administrator, select the Create Feature Class command.
4. In the Create Feature Class dialog box, on the General tab, select Create From Existing View.
5. From the Existing Views list, select the view to register.

   The name of the feature class is the same as the name of the view, and you cannot edit the name. When you hover over the name of the view, the view definition is displayed.

6. Enter the caption to display in the explorer tree views.
7. Optionally edit the type:

   By default the feature class type is the same as for the view. For example, edit the type to create a Collection feature class from a view that has been defined as a line type feature class.

8. Select Feature Class Is Read Only. See Working with Feature Classes.
9. Click OK to register the view.
