Description
The name DeCodEx stands for Designer Code Extractor.
To convert a project, follow these steps:
- ensure that the project you are going to convert compiles correctly in VS2005
- if your project is under source control (like SourceSafe, SVN, …), ensure no file is locked, read-only or missing
- open project file
- click on “Parse project items” to load project classes DeCodEx will load only Forms and UserControls. If some referenced DLLs are missing, DeCodEx will ask for them.
- select classes you want to convert (default is All)
- check the “Make backup” checkbox. This tells DeCodEx to backup entire project folder before starting conversion.
- select conversion mode. DeCodEx parses each original source file line, testing if the line must be moved to the new Designer file or stay in the User file.
