SAS Packages Framework, version 20230207
SAS Packages Framework, version 20230207
News:
- New "Additional Content" feature added to the framework. Usually a package is a "code container" with plain text files with code inside, but sometimes Developer may want the package to contain so called "additional content". The additional content is a perfect solution for a Developer who want, for example, to include: a 150 pages long
pdf
file with detailed documentation, or a bunch ofjpg
files with figures depicting relations between package macros, or something else (basically everything that can't be delivered in the "standard" way). See the latest version of documentation for the details.
Changes in the framework related to the new feature:
- new macro
%loadPackageAddCnt()
which allows to extract additional content, - modifications in the
%generatePackage()
macro to allow creation of additional content, - new parameter in
%loadPackage()
and%installPackage()
macros which triggers use of%loadPackageAddCnt()
macro, - new code added in loading test (to verify extraction of additional content).
Fixes:
- IML Modules loader utility macro rewritten,
- minor bug fixes.
Documentation:
- documentation updated,
- spelling fixes.
