GUI Application Tokens for C Applications

Several tokens are available for GUI applications (C language only). The following tokens are available:

• OPT.TYPELIBGUID
• OPT.BUILD_AB
• OPT.BUILD_SRC
• OPT.HTMLHELPCOMPILER
• OPT.APPMANIFEST
• LOC.IEF_BITMAP
• OPT.REGISTERAPP

The following information applies to some tokens:

• OPT.BUILD_AB

  This token is used to separate all action blocks from the LoadModule.DLL. If YES, all action blocks within the .ICM are processed separately, creating a A_LoadModule.DLL that is linked to the LoadModule.DLL. This is used to reduce the size of the LoadModule.DLL.

• OPT.BUILD_SRC

  This token is used to rebuild the DBMS-specific stub source during the build process. If YES, the DBMS-specific stub module (STUB*N.*), along with STUBMAIN.CPP, are copied to the model directory, where the DBMS-specific stub is rebuilt and then renamed to the LoadModule.EXE. If NO, the DBMS-specific stub executable in the %GENxx%Gen\VSabc directory is copied and renamed to the LoadModule.EXE.

Note: VSabc refers to the supported version of Visual Studio. Replace VSabc with VS100 for Visual Studio 2010 and VS110 for Visual Studio 2012. xx refers to the current release of CA Gen. For the current release number, see the Release Notes.

• OPT.BUILD_SRC

  This token is used to indicate whether or not to execute REGEDIT.EXE during a generated application build. On Windows 7, executing REGEDIT.EXE to register a generated application requires elevated privileges, and as a result, suspends the build process.

Note: If OPT.DEBUG is YES and OPT.BUILD_SRC is YES, the stubs do not build debuggable, as the delivered GUI runtime is not debuggable.
