The .NET Framework runtime environment still dynamically loads “Ispec Model” files which describe the fields and their attributes of an Ispec.

These files need to be converted to .NET Framework and compiled to .dll files before the .NET Framework runtime environment is able to load and use them.

The Component Enabler generator now generates both Java and .NET Framework versions of these files. Both versions of the files are created in the usual 'ispecs' subdirectory.

One notable difference is that the .NET versions of the files are all prefixed with the <system name>_.

For example, sample_MENUIspecModel.cs

This is a requirement of the Windows environment and .dll loading.

The Java versions are compiled by the Developer Builder but the .NET Framework versions are not compiled. These must be manually compiled.

The Component Enabler installation includes a batch file called CompileIspecModelsdotNET.bat that compiles all IspecModel.cs files in the directory.

The most simple method is to copy the CompileIspecModelsdotNET.bat file to the Ispecs directory of the output path. When you want to compile the .NET Framework Ispec Model files, simply go to that appropriate Ispecs directory, and run the batch file.

You must have the C# compiler (csc.exe) installed on the computer. If the C# compiler is not in your 'path' you might need to alter the compiler batch file to include the full path of the compiler.
