Hello,  
  
we want to export the compiler settings of DELHPI project in a DOF file. How can we do that?  
  
Do you have any example (SCRIPT)?  
  
Thank you in advance.  
  
Thomas

What do you mean by export?  
  
I used to read the DOF files with the ReadINI File action (DOF is actually an ini file) and put values in variables.

We have a final builder project for delphi with a lot of various compiler settings (various conditional defines, unit aliases and so on…).  
  
If somebody alter this final builder project we have to synchronize the DOF files on the developer machines.   
  
What we want to to is to automate this process that means if somebody alter the final builder settings for our delphi project he should for example start a script, which revamps the DOF files.

Hi Thomas,  
  
There’s nothing that FinalBuilder can do to automatically generate a DOF file. Maybe you could get the developers to check the DOF file into your version control system?
