In the Active developer license field the name of your license is displayed. If you have more than one license, click the arrow to display all licenses.

In the Default source language field define the language in which the next content item will be created. The source language cannot be changed anymore after a content item was created. You can only select a language you have chosen in the dialog box Select Supported Languages.

Note:

In the Select Supported Languages dialog box at least one more language has to be selected.

Use the Reference file(s) by default field, to define whether a file with texts containing a description should be copied into a project or only references to the text files are created. If you choose Yes, the files will be referenced. In this case the check boxes (Reference only) in the dialog boxes to import such texts (e.g. Descriptive Text Files) are selected by default. It is possible to disable it manually. When you select the No (Copy file(s) by default) option the check boxes will not be automatically checked.

Set the Ask for index.xml option to Yes if most of the imports to be created have a batch import file. The setting you make in this dialog box will be used as default setting for the option of the same name when creating a Standard Import Routine.

You can choose which type of help should be shown. In the Help preference field select Use online help to get the help file stored on a server. If you don't have access to the internet select Use offline help. In this case the help file stored on your computer will be opened. By default the online help will be called.

MSBuild path represents the path to the file MSBuild.exe which comes with every version of Visual Studio, but also with .net framework (but that one is an older version).

If different versions of Visual Studio are installed on your machine the path to MSBuild.exe of the latest version will be shown by default.

You can select another version of this file, but in this case you have to know where MSBuild.exe is located.

Below are some locations for different versions of Visual Studio:

VS 2017 %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\MSBuild\15.0\Bin\MSBuild.exe

VS 2019 %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Enterprise\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe

VS 2022 %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe

SmartAnalyzer supports the use of several macro editors. In the area Macro Handling you can specify the editor you would like to use.

By default (the field Use external macro editor is empty) IDEA's script editor is launched with the corresponding macro template. You have the possibility to choose another editor. Therefore you have to set some command line parameters. The known command line parameters are:

%f = full qualified macro file name

%p = full qualified path to the macro file

%e = extension of the macro including dot

%n = macro name without path and extension

It is not necessary to add the editor here directly. You can also use a batch file to call the corresponding editor.

SmartAnalyzer SDK delivers templates for the different routines. By default they are taken from C:\Program Files (x86)\CaseWare IDEA\SmartAnalyzer App SDK\Templates. In case you would like to use your own templates click on the Browse button in the area Macro Handling and choose them. Please consider that the templates have to be of type UTF 8.

In this area you can choose folders and subfolders for your work with SmartAnalyzer SDK.

Workspace root folder: This folder is specified by the user during the setup. The user can also select any other workspace folder. It has to be a folder where the user has write access.

Database location: Location and name of the currently used development database.

Using Use content item type root folders you can specify whether to use subfolders for each content object type or not. These subfolders are below the workspace folder by default. In case you use subfolders you can choose any other folder.If you select No, the fields for entering subfolders will be disabled and no subfolder will be suggested when creating a new content item.

Application data folder: By default the data is stored in the subfolder %AppData%\CaseWare IDEA\SmartAnalyzer. In some cases it may happen that this folder is recreated each time during the log-in process. You can change the folder by editing the SA.Components.dll.config file.
