Code Utilities


Application Manager allows you to manage a project consisting of directories with text files (including procedure files) that contain Web objects.

Compile

This way of compiling will additionally display any warnings, even for a succesful compile.

Compile Listing

Progress compile listing is very useful for seeing the full program with all include files expanded.

Debug list

Similar to compile listing.

Preprocess

Additionally to expanding all include-files all preprocessor statements will be expanded. This is what Progress uses for final compilation.

String Xref

Listing all hardcoded "strings".

Xref Compile

Progress XREF compile has references to queries index use and various other stuff.

 

Beautifier.

Options for the beautifying program.
 
Save options
At default it does nothing, however you can have it to automatically replace the current file with the beautified file or save to another.
 
Progress keywords
The beautifier will recognize progress keywords and you can specify Uppercase or Lowercase for these, and also you can have it to typeout the words.
 
HTML keywords
This will Upperecase or Lowercase most HTML elements when selected. Please use caution with Javascript and other scripting languages. Currently it is not too smart when it comes to picking out HTML from Javascript, and you do not want to uppercase Javascript..
 
Beautify
This generates a beautified program which will be color coded for the screen output so that you can easily see that it's recognizing correctly and not messing up the beautifying process. This can be a helpful page to print for debugging and presentation of the code too, because of the colorcoding.
 
Analyze
Currently it only gives a compile listing. This is to be changed to something better in future releases.
