OK, thanks for the information. That's very useful to know. Might be useful to add it to the README file at some point. I raised the issue because the RAT report showed that several files did not have headers. It was not obvious to me at the time that these were generated files. I withdraw my objection to the missing AL headers; as you say, it would not be appropriate to add them to the exported files. > > > Note that I've not included the .rc files which have the heading: > > //Microsoft Developer Studio generated resource script > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Regards > > > > -- > > > > ^TM > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > > > dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > > > > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > > > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
