Library file functions

Right clicking on a folder in the library tree opens the following functions:

Setting	Description
Remove	Removes the file from being included in startup of Quantlab. It does not delete the file from the windows directory.
Create New QL file	Create a library file in the windows directory and include it in the ini-file
Add existing QLfile	Add an existing ql-file from the chosen directory
Add QLL	Add existing QLL file from chosen directory
Create folder	Create a new folder in the library tree (in the ini-file not on disc)
Create New LibraryHive	A hive is a separate mini ini-file, that can contain one or several ql files or qll:s. The main library tree will point to include the hive file and not the individual code files.
Add ExistingLibrary Hive	Include an already created hive file.
Move up/down	Move library files, qlls, or hives up or down in the ini file tree. Code will be compiled from top -> down so dependent code must be loaded after the files on which it depends.
Quick find (Ctrl +F)	Will search in the library only. Note that Ctrl + P will search library file names only.

Encryption

When right clicking on an ql-file, an option to encrypt the file will be given. It will encrypt the file both in the library tree and also the physical ql-file on disc. To recover a file with a forgotten password, please contact the Quantlab Support team.
