Hi Geoff,
Question 1 and 2 are basically the same thing:
If you don't copy the objects that are in the wise diy (concord) otml
file, then they will be added as references in your generated file.
These references point to the objects in the wise diy (concord) file.
You have 2 options:
- you can add an "include" to the generated otml file, so it loads in
all the objects from the wise diy otml file.
- you can copy the objects from the wise diy otml file, into your
generated otml file.
I think you probably want to copy the objects. This way your generated
otml file will not depend on the wise diy otml file being available.
To copy the objects, you need to get the OTObjectService from an object
in your generated otml file. Then when you use the
OTObjectService.copyObject method, the copied object will be stored in
the generated otml file.
Question 3 is odd. If you look before the Null child id in the console
do you see any messages like "can't find a class" or "can't load an
object"? I think the only way you can get that error is if the
OTScriptEngineBundle class can't be found during runtime.
