Hi David,

I see you used the "VSCode" tag. The couple of times I have done this in VSCode, I typically just import the XML classes into my system and then once they are loaded, I use the VSCode ObjectScript Explorer and export my classes from there into my project. I've only done it once or twice, so I don't know if there is a better way of doing it.

If you are interested, these are some methods for doing it manually as well that could be scripted to do all your files:

USER>do $system.OBJ.Load("C:\Users\psteiwer\Desktop\Class.xml")

Load started on 03/10/2020 17:40:03
Loading file C:\Users\psteiwer\Desktop\Class.xml as xml
Imported class: PivotSubscriptions.Utils
Load finished successfully.

USER>do $system.OBJ.ExportUDL("PivotSubscriptions.Utils.CLS","C:\Users\psteiwer\Desktop\Class.cls")
