This section provides a detailed description of the contents of the Expert panel in the CAST Oracle Forms Extractor. By default this tab is not displayed - to view it, you need to select View > Expert mode:

CAST recommends only changing these options if you are requested to do so by CAST Support as part of a troubleshooting process.

This panel enables you to define the various additional parameters for the extraction and delivery processes.

Zip Packaging

By default this option is set to FALSE. Activating the option will cause the extraction results to be output in ZIP file format (.castextraction extension), however, CAST recommends that you leave this option deactivated (FALSE) unless specifically requested to activate it by support during troubleshooting.

Abort on Fatal Error

By default this option is set to FALSE. Activating the option will cause the extraction process to stop when an error occurs. The Log panel will contain the reason for the abort and the obligatory types that caused the error.

Meta Mode
?
Target Zip Packaging

By default this option is set to FALSE. Activating this option will cause the delivery results to be output in raw file format AND in zip format. Please ensure that you correctly fill in the Target Folder Path field in the Target panel: make sure that you omit the .ZIP suffix.

Entering D:\Squirrel\delivery\delivery in the Target Folder Path field in the Target panel will result in a .ZIP file called delivery.zip located in the D:\Squirrel\delivery folder AND a set of raw files in D:\Squirrel\delivery\delivery.

Unicode EncodingNot currently used
Platform OverrideNot currently used
UAX Relative Paths

By default this option is set to TRUE. This option will force the creation of relative paths (instead of absolute paths) in the resulting .UAX files (created during the delivery process) that point to the location of the source code (these are used in the AD Dashboard and in CAST Enlighten). This allows you to move the results of the delivery process and not lose the accompanying source code.

CAST recommends leaving this option activated at all times.
