gmPL Utility Statements

The gmPL utility statements are like the command statements in that they are used within a gmBasic command script. Their role, however, is not to guide a translation but rather to perform a special operation to eventually aid a translation. The utility statements are as follows:

Statement Description of use
BuildOrder Reviews and orders a set of loaded project files so that they can be processed.
GlobalStubs Authors the stubs for a set of references that have been loaded previously via the Reference command.
Gmsl Introduces Great Migrations Scripting Language gmSL subprograms that can then be executed.
ImportList Rather than authoring any local stubs with the translated codes gmBasic can instead manage an ImportsGlobal file which maintains a list of all referenced components in all imported references. Once completed, this statement authors the stub code for them
IncludeOrder Reviews and orders a set of loaded ASP files so that they can be processed.
Load Loads the source compilation units so that they can be edited or ordered in preparation for processing.
Search Searches a virtual binary information file for symbols and produces reports as requested within the statement.
SharedFile Used after a set of VBP files have been loaded with the SourceCode attribute turned on. It scans the loaded form, class, and module files to see if any are loaded by more that one project.
gmNI-Utility Whenever gmBasic encounters a statement in a command script that it does not recognize, it searches each loaded runtime DLL for a handler of that statement. This makes it possible to add utility statements as needed by code migration projects.
