Elements in the Contract Repository can be mapped to FML fields. The repository also maintains a mapping between these field names and FML field identifier values. The C++ Expert can generate a FML field table file from the elements in the Contract Repository.
To generate an FML Field Table file:
When the Generate FML Field Tables window is displayed, you can click Start to begin the generation of application files.
.
Figure 3-11 Generating a FML Field Table File
If a FML field table file already exists, you will be reminded and asked to confirm that you wish to overwrite this file. While the C++ Expert is generating the FML field table, it will display the directory where the file is put, the phase of the process it is currently performing, and any status information. You can click on Stop to halt the process at any time.
Warning: The FML field table file generated by the C++ Expert may need to be modified before it is compiled for use in your application. The C++ Expert can not determine which elements already have FML field table entries and FML field identifier values created for them in another FML field table file.
For more information about fields on this window, refer to the Generate FML Field Tables window, the Generate Settings window, and the Generate Settings task description.
