Description
Description:
If you need to reuse schemas of an existing TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for Files (Unix/Win) (FA) project in other FA projects without manually creating those schemas again, you can take an extended copy of a schema from an existing FA project and paste it into another FA project. This is helpful when you want to reuse the read schema from an existing project to the project having the same FA instance name where the import/export schema may not help due to a name conflict of resources.
