Building Versioned Object Type Libraries
The following example creates a new versioned library that shall get object types
with control aspects for Control Builder M Professional. How to create object types
in this new library is shown in Process Object Type with Signals on page 504 and
Process Object Type Built in Function Designer on page 508.
The activities described correspond to workflow step Build Project Library,
Versioned Object Type Libraries if you need to build an own library.
To create a new library starting from Control Builder M Professional:
1. In Project Explorer opened on your Control Project select the Libraries folder.
2. On the Libraries folder (with right mouse click) create a new Library. You
name it ProcObjSigExtLib.
The following happens automatically in Plant Explorer:
The Library object and the Library Version object below is created in the
Library Structure below the Libraries folder object.
The Library Version object is inserted in the Object Type Structure below
Object Types/Control System/AC 800M\/C Connect / Libraries.
Below the Library Version object the folder objects Control Module Types,
Data Types, Function Block Types and Internal Types are created.
3. Now you can start to add your object types to the ProcObjSigExtLib library.
This example continues Process Object Type with Signals on page 504.
4. To test the library on another machine you can create a Library Archive via the
Library Export button in the General tab of the Library Version Definition
aspect on the Library Version object. In the Export Library Dialog you
determine where the .afw archive file is stored. Transfer the archive to the other
machine and import it with the Import\Export tool there.
Using Versioned Object Type Libraries
To use the new library on another engineering system:
1. Import the library archive with the Import / Export tool.
2. In Control Builder M Professional (or Plant Explorer).
