GOAL:
How does OpenEdge Architect reference the assemblies.xml file?
GOAL:
How does OpenEdge Architect use the -assemblies parameter?
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge Architect Category: Visual Designer
OpenEdge 10.2A
Windows
FIX:
For projects, OpenEdge Architect looks at the startup parameters specified in the project properties. The project will use the assemblies.xml file located in the directory specified by the -assemblies parameter. This affects Visual Designer as well as the class browser since the class browser gets its list of assemblies from the project. If -assemblies is not specified in the "Startup parameters" field then the project will just look in the root folder of the project.
In addition, the class browser has an icon in its toolbar called "Add External Resources". This allows an assembly to be selected that the class browser will show even if the assembly is not actually referenced by any of the projects.
For launch configurations, the -assemblies parameter will be picked up by the project if the project is using an assemblies file. Otherwise it can be overridden it by specifying a specific -assemblies directory in the launch config dialog on the startup tab.
