Prepare Code Settings

Prepare Code Settings page

Description

Prepare my code: Flag to indicate whether the input code should be processed before parsing and transformation. This can be useful to improve the parsing process. By default, it's set to FALSE.\

Splits the input code top-level objects into multiple files. The containing folders would be organized as follows:

Copy

└───A new folder named ''[input_folder_name]_Processed''
    └───Top-level object type
        └───Schema name

Example

Input

├───in
│       script_name.sql

Output

Assume that the name of the files is the name of the top-level objects in the input files.

├───in_Processed
    ├───procedure
    │   └───dbo
    │           A_PROCEDURE.sql
    │           ANOTHER_PROCEDURE.sql
    │           YET_ANOTHER_PROCEDURE.sql
    │
    └───table
        └───dbo
                MY_TABLE.sql
                ADDITIONAL_TABLE.sql
                THIRD_TABLE.sql

Requirements

We highly recommend using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to obtain the script.
