I have a calculation view that I am signficantly modifying which has almost 800 columns using SAP HANA Studio. I wish to be able to compare the visible columns (Sematics layer columns) with the previous version (which I have a saved copy) but don't want to activate it until I have verified that my changes are correct.
My plan is that I would like to use SYS.VIEW_COLUMNS view to get the columns lists to compare, but this (as far as I understand it) only uses the metadata from the activated objects. Ideally, I could use this view to list the columns of my modified (and saved) but not yet activated.
Let me know what questions you have to clarify my situation. As well as if this is even possible.
Thanks!
Steve
