Is there a way to include a class written in a text file in a WD project?
I'd like to move a whole batch of procedures that have into a class without having to manually add each one separately.
I need to do some code cleanup as well and it would go easily if I could work in TextPad or UltraEdit and then 'import' the text into WD.
I tried to do it quickly in the 'Simple OOP' Example by copying the Elephant Class to textpd, changing it to ElephantSeal and then adding it back as External source - EXTERN "ClassTestElephantSeal.WL"
Unfortunately, EXTERN is not allowed in the class declarations, and the parent class isn't available in project global section.
I hope I'm just missing something or that someone can definitively say that this is just not possible.
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
AFAIK, it's not possible (and requested by many users for a long time)
However, you CAN copy multiple procedures into a class in one go... Just
multiselect the procedures, copy and paste... that part DOES work
Best regards

Thanks, Fabrice. I was afraid that was the answer. Just hoping to use a better text editor on the whole batch more easily.
Here is what I found though -
I can copy the whole batch into a Class declaration, and then for each Method, I can comment out the declaration line, copy the method code, right click New method from selected code, give it name. Once it is in, I uncomment the declaration and delete the new one.
