Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Deployment:
Managing 4GL Applications

XCODE utility

Use the XCODE utility to encrypt Progress 4GL procedures and include files. This is the syntax for XCODE:

Syntax (UNIX)

xcode [ -k key ] -d directory [ files] [ - ]

key

A character string up to 8 characters long. On UNIX, key is case sensitive. If you do not specify key, XCODE uses a default key. When OpenEdge is started with the Encrypted Compiler Mode (-rx) startup parameter, the Progress Application Compiler automatically uses this default key, unless you specify the XCODE option on the COMPILE statement.

directory

The directory where XCODE places the encrypted files. The specified directory must be different from the source directory, because each encrypted file retains the name of its original source file. XCODE overwrites existing files in directory if they are encrypted.

files

The relative pathnames of the files you want to encrypt. XCODE appends the pathnames supplied to directory.
