Command ‘Save Project as Compiled Library’

Function: this command saves a library project in encrypted form.

Call: Main menu File.

The command opens the common dialog for saving a file in the file system. The file type is already preset to Compiled CODESYS libraries. The file extension is .compiled-library.

From then on the *.compiled-library files behave exactly like *.library files and can therefore be installed and referenced in the same way.

Apart from the protection of the source code of a library, this results in the advantage of shorter loading times and smaller library files.
