Title: Merge A.odcl and B.odcl to C.odcl?
Post by: Peter2 on October 20, 2016, 11:51:17 AM
As said in the subject - is it possible to merge A.odcl and B.odcl to C.odcl? Different people made different files, and they should be merged in one ODCL ...

I think the closest you can come is to copy and paste content from all forms in A and B into new forms in C. In that way, at least you can transfer entire forms at once.

I can weakly remember for a sample how to create controls programmatically.
I didn't had a search but feel free to search for in in the forum. I believe there was a case but I may fail.

Do you mean this:
"Interface/form generation from formatted text/ code"

There is an interesting sentence:

...One feature planned for the next version of OpenDCL is an ability to import and export ODCL projects in an XML format that can be easily created and modified outside of OpenDCL Studio.

But for me, simple copy&paste of all controls does more than 95% of the job - for me it is OK.
