IMPORTANT: It is not recommended for Production escenarios as this tool allows you to execute code without guarantee.
This tool allows you to write, execute and debug X++ code directly in the browser, without the need to compile or wait for service restart.
- Clone the repo
- Build the MXppTools package included and apply it to your environment
- Synchronize the database
- Navigate to System Administration > Workspaces > MXT - X++ Interpreter
This tool generates bytecode that is later interpreted directly during execution. The instructions that are interpreted are executed in native code using a series of proxies written in X++. That allows to simulate the execution almost exactly as native code would do it, without the need to compile.
The editor will highlight the reserved words and will indicate you which statement is being executed when debugging. It will also tell you if your code has any syntax error.
Some keyboard shortcuts are implemented to easly execute, insert a breakpoint, step over and continue debugging. These can be found as standard shorcuts by Right click > View shorcuts on the editor.
The variable inspector will allow you to take a look to the variables that are currently on scope and will let you modify the values for primitive types.
You can save X++ scripts into the built-in repository to later execute them.
- Execute, modify and save X++ scripts
- Experiment with unknown or new functionality
- Test pieces of your code
- Get metada information quickly (class and table ids, label texts, enum values...)
- Macros usage and declarations are not supported
- Class declarations are not supported
- retry statement is not implemented
- .NET namespaces cannot be referenced
