Dialog 'Options' – 'Libraries'dl-permalink__symbolPermalink

Symbol: _cds_icon_option_lib

Function: This dialog helps you to manage the mappings of library references that CODESYS uses during the conversion of an old project. If you have not yet stored any mapping for a certain library, you must redefine the mapping each time when opening an old project in which this library is integrated.

Call: Menu bar: “Tools  Options”; category “Libraries”.

Tab 'Library Download'

If you click on the button “Download Missing Libraries” in the library manager, CODESYS browses these download servers for libraries marked as missing in the library manager and uses the set login details for the proxy server.

“Download servers”

URL of a server containing library files

Double-click on “(Enter new download server here)”

An input field opens in which you can enter the URL address of a server.

Tab 'V2 Conversion'

A mapping defines what a library reference looks like following the conversion of the project to the current format. There are three possibilities:

  • You retain the reference. This means that CODESYS similarly converts the library into the current format (*.library) and installs it in the local library repository.

  • You replace a reference with another reference. This means that one of the installed libraries replaces the library that was integrated until now.

  • You delete the reference. This means that the converted project no longer integrates the library.

CODESYS applies all the listed mappings to the library references of an old project the next time it is converted. Hence, you must repeat the mapping definition if the same library is integrated again in a project that is to be converted. You can enter a new mapping in the last line.

“Source Library”

Path of the library that is integrated in the project before the conversion.

A double-click an entry makes the field editable and the button for the input assistance appears.

“Target Library”

Name and location of the library that is to be integrated in the project after the conversion.

A double-click an entry opens the dialog “Set target system library”.
