Automated Build Studio lets you create libraries of commonly used submacros and
provides an easy way to reuse them in different macros.
In Automated Build Studio, a library is a macro that consists of submacros and specifies the
submacros it “exports” to other macros.
To call library submacros from other macros, use the Run Library Submacro
operation. It lets you specify the name of the library that contains the needed
submacro, the submacro name and its input and output parameters, if any.
This way, macro libraries enable you to:
- Easily reuse common submacros in different macros. The Run Library Submacro operation frees you from copying common submacros to each macro.
- Simplify the maintanance of common submacros. You do not need to modify your macros when you need to change some of the library submacro’s operations.
- Reduce the complexity of your macros. You can create library submacros of commonly used operation blocks and maintain them independently. This will reduce the macro length and let you focus on the build logic rather than on the low-level implementation
of its individual steps.
- Work on common submacros in a team. You can share libraries between team members and collaborate on them.
