Compiling the sample files

To make your sample files run more efficiently, use the OpenEdge Application Compiler to compile the sample files you copied. The compiled files have the same name as the window, procedure, and include files, but have a .r file extension.

To compile the sample files:

Choose the AppBuilder icon from the Desktop toolbar to start the AppBuilder. The AppBuilder main window appears:



Choose Tools Application Compiler from the AppBuilder menu. The Application Compiler dialog box appears:



Choose Start Compile. The Compiler Results dialog box appears showing the AppBuilder’s progress compiling the sample files.
Note: You do not need to specify a path because the compiler automatically looks for files in your working directory.
When the compile finishes, choose OK and exit the compiler.

You have created a copy of the Sports2000 database, connected to your database, copied the sample application files, and compiled them. You can now run the sample application.
