How to get '.r' file without open edge developer studio?

Question

I'm new to progress open edge. Is it possible to get a '.r' file using GUI Procedure editor or app builder, if so how to get it?

Answer 1

If you have the GUI procedure editor, use the "Application Compiler" from the "Tools" menu.

Or enter the following code in the procedure editor and execute (F2):

COMPILE path/to/your.p SAVE.
COMPILE path/to/your.w SAVE.

Answer 2

You need some sort of compiler license to generate r-code.

The "showcfg" utility will list the licenses that you have available.
