GOAL:

What is the purpose of the "bin" and "src" project directories in Architect?

GOAL:

How to use the "bin" and "src" project directories in Architect?

GOAL:

Where is the rcode placed by default when the bin directory is present in an Architect project?

FACT(s) (Environment):

Windows
OpenEdge 10.1x
OpenEdge 10.2x

FIX:

Setting the rcode destination creates a "src" type propath entry and sets the build destination for ONLY that one propath entry to be "bin".

Selecting the 'bin' directory option does not set the projects default rcode destination, it only sets the rcode destination for that one propath entry.

Any programs created outside the "src" directory use the projects default r-code destination, by default a new project's rcode destination is not set which means the r-code ends up right next to the source file.


Any programs created inside (or in subdirectories...) have their r-code placed in the build destination for that propath entry. In this case the "bin" directory is used.

You may optionally choose not to create an rcode directory setting with the new project, and in that case any files in the 'src' directory will use the project setting, which again defaults to not set, so the r-code ends up right next to the source code.
