builder2prj - Convert project files with suffixes `.cbl`, `.nbl`, and `.mxl` to `.prj` (`deploytool`) format

Syntax

builder2prj
builder2prj([project.cbl,project.nbl,project.mxl])
builder2prj([project.cbl,project.nbl,project.mxl],
      new_project.prj)

Description

This function converts project files in older formats such as.cbl, .nbl, and .mxl, to a format usable by deploytool (.prj).

Examples

Example 1

builder2prj;

Entering this command opens the Builder Project File dialog box, which enables you to browse for the project you wish to convert. Navigate to the .cbl, .nbl, or .mxl project file, select the file name, and click Open to start the conversion process.

Example 2

builder2prj(my_project.cbl);

In this example, builder2prj locates my_project.cbl in your present working folder and converts the file to deploytool-compatible format (.prj format). In this example, after builder2prj runs, only the file suffix (.cbl) has changed. The new project name is the same as the old project name, but with a new suffix (my_project.prj).

Example 3

builder2prj(my_project.mxl,renamed_project.prj);

By specifying a second file name argument, you can choose a specific name for your deploytool-compatible project. In this example, my_project.mxl is located in your present working folder and builder2prj is run, converting the .mxl project to a .prj project. The new project is named renamed_project.prj.
