How to Package a Single File

Packaging a single file is very simple, but is seldom necessary since you will generally use the option to package all of the files in your application.

 

In every module with a file browser, you merely right-click on the filename, and a Convert to Packaged button will appear.

To view your Packaged Files, click on Packaged Files

 

 

When a module is reading a packaged file, the file appears in the browser as bold-blue text with no apparent path. However, if you hover over the file, you will see the path as:

package://

Once one or all files are packaged in a .EVS application, when you save the application, the data files will be saved "in" the .EVS file.
