GeneXus Category Pattern

⚠️ This repo is no longer under development.

Here you can find the source of the Category pattern, a GeneXus pattern that was part of it until first upgrades of its version 17.

Requirements

workflows.msbuild is defined to simplify the Build and Deploy operations.

Target	Description
`Build`	Builds the entire pattern for the specified configuration. This target is configured as the default one, it can be omitted at the command-line.
`Deploy`	Copies the pattern files to the directory specified by `GX_PROGRAM_DIR` variable.

Usage samples:

Builds the pattern with Configuration=Debug and a specified GeneXus SDK installation:

c:repo\category-pattern>msbuild workflows.msbuild /p:GX_SDK_DIR="c:\mySDK"

Builds the pattern with Configuration=Release, GX_SDK_DIR can be omitted if an environment variable with this name is already defined:

c:repo\category-pattern>msbuild workflows.msbuild /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release

c:repo\category-pattern>msbuild workflows.msbuild /t:Deploy /p:GX_PROGRAM_DIR="c:\myGX17\\"

Name	Description
`Configuration`	Specifies the configuration. `Debug` is the default value. Valid configurations: `Debug` or `Release`.
`GX_PROGRAM_DIR`	Path to a GeneXus installation; this value can be omitted. If an environment value with this name is already defined it is used by default. Otherwise, `Build` target uses a default value calculated from `GX_SDK_DIR` and `Deploy` target uses a relative directory '.gxinstall'.
`GX_SDK_DIR`	Path to a GeneXus SDK installation; this value can be omitted if an environment variable is defined. Required for `Build` target and build the solution.
