$compile and $generate

Synopsis

$compile [object]
$generate [object]

Description

$compile compiles an object's process. object is a template object or one of the process objects in ProcTemplates. $compile is equivalent to the Network Editor's Project -> Compile pull-down command. $generate does the same as $compile but only generates any source required for the object and does not perform a make on the resulting makefile.

Examples

The following example compiles UIbutton's process. Note that you must be working in a project to which you have write access, rather than the read-only default express project for these examples to work. If you are not, use the Network Editor's Project -> Save As... pull-down command to create such a project.


OM(Root) -> $compile UIbutton

This is the same example using a complete pathname:


OM(Root) -> $compile Templates.UI.Controls.UIbutton

The following example compiles the user process:


OM(Root) -> $compile ProcTemplates.user
