Safe X3 projects

A Safe X3 project contains source code and related files for building Safe X3 scripts. A Safe X3 project matches only one SAGE X3 application folder but links with other folders can be done with Build Path configuration page.

A Safe X3 project also maintains a model of its contents. This model includes information about types, references and declarations of Safe X3 elements. This information is constantly updated as the user changes the Safe X3 source code. Updating the internal Safe X3 project model is independent of the Safe X3 Builder; in particular, when performing code modifications, if auto-build is turned off, the model will still reflect the present project contents.

You can organize Safe X3 projects in two different ways:

Select a Safe X3 Project in any explorer view then right click Properties to display project properties. Note that only the Help location property can be modified if files are open for writing.

Use a specific help path

If not selected, help path will be retrieved from application settings. If selected, you need to specify a help path in field below.

Help location

Specific help location. Use this if the help path cannot be retrieved automatically from application settings¹.

Notes:

  1. Please note that since Version 7 the different languages of the help contents are using the iso language code.
    For example, instead of ENG in the sub path you have en_US .
    You must not put this language code in the url but be sure that the help contents is compliant with this new scheme when working with a Version 7 folder.
