Compilation of several components at once
Author: zdenek.socha@fullsys.cz (sochaz)
Hello, is there a way to compile more components at once using a command line interface of idf.exe? Currently I use something like this: C:xxxU96Xcommonbinidf.exe /adm=C:xxxU96Xunifaceadm /asn=myasn.asn /lis /inf mycomp I figured out, there's no need to specify "/frm", "/svc" or "/rpt" switch. For the only one component, it works fine. But to speed things up I put up to 10 components at once - as semicolon separated list. So, the command line looks like this: C:xxxU96Xcommonbinidf.exe /adm=C:xxxU96Xunifaceadm /asn=myasn.asn /lis /inf mycomp1;mycomp2;mycomp3 It works fine as long as all components are of the same type, that is forms, services or reports. But if it is form1;service1;form2 .. then only form1 and form2 are compiled and idf skips the service1. Is there any way to compile any kind of components? Kind regards, Zdeněk

So it seems that I have to keep it with /all or try to figure out, which component is of what type (service, form, report) and compile them separately. But this is not an easy task, since the list of components is a result of different actions (for example searching in listing, finding painted entity, etc). BTW the main reason for all this is to recompile the components after changes have been made in the model (entity and/or field), or after we globally change few triggers in many components (but not all components). Regards, Zdeněk PS: I wonder, how compiler found 1 error in 0 menus. 
But now it reminds me of some undocumented features of $ude posted here... And I have found a post dated August 2008 with some hidden settings of $ude... so maybe, I'll give it a try now.
