Smart generation

Intro

Objecteering C++ Developer provides two different generation options:

· Forced generation

· Smart generation

Forced generation runs a complete generation of the selected element (a class, a package or an entire project selected in the PTM dialog box). In this case, all elements are generated.

To force the generation of C++ code, simply select the element you want to generate and then click on the button in the "C++" tab of the auxiliary window. C++ code is then generated for the selected element and its contents.

Smart generation accelerates the generation process. When the smart generation option is used, Objecteering C++ Developer looks at last modification dates and only generates elements that have been modified since the last generation operation, avoiding useless generation and speeding up the generation process.

To smart-generate C++ code, simply select the element you want to generate and then click on the button in the "C++" tab of the auxiliary window. C++ code is then generated for any elements (the selected element or any of its sub-elements) that have been modified since the last generation operation.
