Hi,

In my custom_entityUsingEntityBase.template, I've included:

<[ UserCodeRegion "CustomEntityValidationCode" ]>' __LLBLGENPRO_USER_CODE_REGION_START <[UserCodeRegionName]>
' __LLBLGENPRO_USER_CODE_REGION_END<[ EndUserCodeRegion ]>

This creates (as far as I can see) a correct UserCodeRegion.

When I generate the code with SelfServicing, two class scenario Full/Safe, the existing entities are not replaced, which is correct. But when I run SelfServicing, two class scenario Full, then I should expect that the code that is written between the start/end comments is saved. Problem is that the whole file seems to be overwritten, and the UserCode has gone...

Am I doing anything wrong?

Place the ' __LLBLGENPRO_USER_CODE_REGION_START "CustomEntityValidationCode" on a new line, below the <[UserCodeRegion tag. Also replace <[UserCodeRegionName]> with "CustomEntityValidationCode" if that's not working.

Hi Frans,

The probleem seems to be the variable in the comment. When I replace <[UserCodeRegionName]> with a fixed string, it's working correct.

Now, I'm also using <[UserCodeRegion EntityFieldName "Custom)$VALUE)FieldValidation"]> In that case, I'd like to use the <[UserCodeRegionName]> in the starting comment. But it seems now that I cannot do that.

Yes, the <[UserCodeRegionName]> statement is used to retrieve the name which is generated in the <[UserCodeRegion statement when you use a macro.

Now, I'm also using <[UserCodeRegion EntityFieldName "Custom)$VALUE)FieldValidation"]> In that case, I'd like to use the <[UserCodeRegionName]> in the starting comment. But it seems now that I cannot do that.

Hmm. It might be the ')' typo. Straight from the templates:

            <[ UserCodeRegion CurrentEntityName "CreateNew($VALUE)" ]>
            ' __LLBLGENPRO_USER_CODE_REGION_START <[ UserCodeRegionName ]>
            ' __LLBLGENPRO_USER_CODE_REGION_END
            <[ EndUserCodeRegion ]>     

which works ok.

No, it's not the typo, because I found the problem in the first example (without macro).

But no worry, it works fine now (even with the start comment on the same line as the UserCodeRegion-statement).

thanx

Hmm, it still should work... I'll do some testing
