« on: August 09, 2024, 07:01:00 PM »I am using SE in Windows, but my files are in WSL2. Getting to them via \\wsl.localhost works fine except for symbolic links. I really don't care about those files and want to remove them from my project. I started writing a macro based on some old thread from 2008, but I'm guessing things have changed.
I do this:
retVal = _ProjectRemove_File(_ProjectHandle(_project_name), fileName);
Which on its own doesn't seem to work. But if I add this to the macro:
project_add_file('\\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\muuserid\somefile');
Then the remove command works. I assume my first function call does something but those changes don't actually get saved to the project file (since if I call the command twice on the same file I get a return code the second time indicating nothing changed). Can anyone tell me what function I need to call to save the project file changes?
