6.) Generate Library and used as a function.

Test Library Generation

After you've saved the instance, but before you click the Generate Library   button, click to find any language errors.

Generate Library

Click to update the library on the Process Commander system (on the current node only). Do not click this button until you have clicked Test Library Generation  and performed other testing to confirm that your function works as intended. If you generate a library that includes compilation errors, but has the same Rule Set and version as a previously generated library that compiled, the older, working CLASS files are overwritten. This can affect processing of other users of the library

7.) Usage of this function
