RE: Relinking Projects to OGTK-2.x

[Jim K. <ji...@ji...>]

Sorry, somehow the EOL char's got messed up that last email...

The relinking tool performs the following actions:

(1)  Creates a temporary copy of OGTK 2.x in a temp dir

(2)  Removes the __ogtk suffix from the OGTK 2.x in the temp dir

(3)  Loads the OGTK 2.x in the temp dir into memory

(4)  Opens your project source files into memory

(5)  Restores the __ogtk suffix to the OGTK 2.x in the temp dir

(6)  Saves project source files

(7)  Unloads all files from memory

(8)  Deletes OGTK 2.x in the temp dir

(9)  Loads the OGTK 2.x into memory

(10) Opens your project source files into memory

(11) Saves project source files

Please back up your project source files, before running this utility :-)
