Exporting Source Code

You can export source code to a directory in the file system or to a Jar file.  To export source code for classes and interfaces:

  1. In the Export SmartGuide, after you have selected the target directory or Jar file for the export, enable the .java check-box.
  2. Click the Details button.
  3. Select classes and interfaces from the workspace by enabling their check-boxes.   Click OK.
  4. Select other export options, if needed.
  5. Click Finish.

The source code will be exported to .java files in a subdirectory of the target directory.  The subdirectory is named after the package containing the class.   Periods in the package name become new subdirectories.  For example, if you export a class named Class1 in a package named My.Package to a target directory c:\VAJava\ide\export, then the Class1.java file will be exported to c:\VAJava\ide\export\My\Package.
