Export analysed Source Code with extensions.

Hi.  You probably have a few choices: 1) In EA, Workspace, Export Sources from Workspace, 2) Via Windows Explorer, repositories "Sources" folder.  

EA must use a default extension (e.g., cbl for COBOL).

Hope this helps

Hi, unfortunately when exporting from the workspace, it does not include the file extension.

So we get the source code without an extension, example

And once analysed, the client wants us to return the source code WITH the correct extension, example:

From all my research, EA cannot export from workspace with the extensions - am I correct in this?

Perhaps you are viewing the folder with settings to hide the extension of known file types? I can say with 100% confidence that if you export the source using the 'Export sources from workspace' from the Workspace menu you get the extensions included.

I have worked a lot with that feature lately and can confirm Neil's message. Of course, EA will not add any extensiion but will use those, that are there. I usually add extensions to my sources code and do no rely on the automatic type recognition, as it is not 100 % reliable.

from the diagrammer or from the tag manager you have an option to "include into project" where you specify a new project name. That will create an extra project from which export of sources should work.

Joachim, please, do you have a exemple of batch command (.bat) to include into project ?

thanks
