Thanks, Dmitry! Tried with $System.OBJ.Export and was not successful.  Maybe makes sense to add "Export Package" functionality to general OBJ.Export too.

This is cool! Moreover, this:

w $System.OBJ.Export("Package1.*,Package2.*","Solution.xml")

will export two your class packages into the one 'solution.xml'.

One detail regarding this. To export only classes (and not Globals and OBJ code) you should put it in the pattern:

w $System.OBJ.Export("Sample.*.CLS")

will export only the classes.

But that's what the ExportPackage functions is for.

What does $System.OBJ.ExportPackage() function do special which $System.OBJ.Export() doesn't?

Export packages? ;)

Yes.

Finally calls:

d $System.OBJ.Export("Sample.*.cls","sample1.xml")

and

d $System.OBJ.ExportPackage("Sample","sample2.xml")

produce equal files of Sample package export in "xml" format.

Good day Evgeny,

Whilst on this topic, I have been unsuccessful in producing an XML export of the csp pages, similar to the XML produced by exporting in studio. If possible to do this, please assist with the syntax.

How about this?

Thank you very much John. The right syntax makes all the difference, it works as expected.
