MetaEd IDE (ATOM) - Organizing Files

All .metaed files in an extension project must be contained in a folder in order for the build to run properly. Adding organizational sub-folders to an extension project are also required. MetaEd output is based upon the definition of the item within the file and not the structure of the underlying file directory. You may find it helpful to organize your files in the same way that the ed-fi-model project is organized.

Step 1. Create New Folder

Right-click on the extension project and click New Folder.

Step 2. Name Folder

Name the new folder appropriately and press Enter. NOTE: Only the Enter key saves file and folder names.

Step 3. Move Files

You may move files in and out of folders by clicking on the file name in the tree view and dragging the file into a folder. You may also right-click on the file and click Cut and then right-click on the desired folder and click Paste.
