The new program file will be blank when it is first opened.
Rather than writing all of the EPL initialisation code from the beginning, Workbench comes with some standard
code snippets/examples which include the EPL initialisation code. This EPL initialisation code snippet can be
used in the start-up block.
On the lower left hand side of the program window is the Mint library. When you first use
Mint Workbench this window will either be blank or may already show the pre-loaded
examples (depending on Workbench version installed).
If you need to open the samples library, right click on the Mint library window. A popup
menu will appear. Choose “Open sample library”.
A list of code snippets will appear.
To construct our program we will use the following code snippets listed below:
Mint Template
Function doInitialiseEPL
EPL Initialisation Variable Declarations
EPL Initialisation Startup code
The first step is to have a suitable code structure to populate with your own code. The Mint
Template is provided in the standard library for this purpose.
You can add the code to your program by dragging the icon from the library on to the
editor.
