SX Options: Extract Strings Now

The Extract Strings Now page, accessed by selecting the Extract Strings Now node on the SX window's treeview, a) informs you if SX option settings have changed since VBLM last extracted strings from the parent VB project(s), b) details the results of the last string extraction, and c) allows you to command VBLM to perform a new one.

Last Extraction Results

The last extraction results info includes:

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ whether or not an SXL file was found, and if so, whether or not it was applied and how many strings it caused to be excluded

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ how many files were processed, and if any were ignored

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ whether any comment directives were found

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ how many string instances were found

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ how many string instances were excluded by the exclusion rules

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ how many instances and how many unique strings were extracted

$image\DIAMOND.gif$ whether or not the extraction was logged
