Package Built-In Functions for Deployment (Windows/Linux)
You need to be familiar with the Deployment Tool shipped as part of Visual LANSA in order to be able to package objects from your Visual LANSA environment.
To include the User Defined Built-In functions in your package, you will need to select them from the Objects Tab from your package definition.
-
To select a 3GL BIF, select it from the Built-In Functions node.
-
To select an RDML BIF, select it from the Processes/Functions node.
To deploy the BIF definitions (LX_F47 and LX_F48 files), for example, when deploying to a development environment, you must select the Deploy System/Partition Definitions option in the Deployment Tool's Package Settings. Enabling this option will add the BIF definitions to the deployment package.
