IRESOLVE

Resolves all IDL code within the iTools directory, as well as all other IDL code required for the iTools framework.

Examples

Example 1

Suppose you wish to create a SAVE file that contains all of the code necessary to run an iTool you have created with the name mytool. First, start with a clean IDL session and compile all of your own code:

.COMPILE mytool

Now compile all of the iTools code:

IRESOLVE

Finally, create the SAVE file:

SAVE, FILE='mytool.sav', /ROUTINES, /COMPRESS

Example 2

Since IRESOLVE calls RESOLVE_ALL, it will attempt to include all routines required by any already-compiled routine. This may cause problems if your application calls routines that are already contained in a different SAVE file, but you do not want the routines from the other SAVE file to be included within your own iTools SAVE file. In this case, resolve your routines in two steps:

First, start with a clean IDL session and compile all of the iTools code:

IRESOLVE

Next, compile your own application:

.COMPILE mytool2

Then, resolve all of your required routines, skipping any that you do not want included:

RESOLVE_ALL, SKIP_ROUTINES=routines_that_should_not_be_resolved

Finally, create the SAVE file:

SAVE, FILE='mytool2.sav', /ROUTINES, /COMPRESS

Syntax

IRESOLVE [, PATH=string]

Keywords

PATH

Set this keyword to a string containing the full path to the iTools directory. The default is to use the lib/itools subdirectory within which the IRESOLVE procedure resides.
