To be able to export an application using a basket, first make sure there is a production version defined with a user and password, and there is an application basket.

To export an application using a basket:

1.From the Repository Manager menu, select Tools,Export Application Basket...
The Export Application Basket dialog opens.
2.Select the Production Version to be exported from the dropdown list.
This dropdown list shows all production versions.
3.Choose a Basket from the dropdown list.
4.Click the Export Basket button.
5.Read the question text, and click Yes if you want to export this application using the basket.
For your convenience, the XML Document field is set to the path of the exported XML document.
A DOS command box and a USoft Application is opened for the specified account, and the part of the application specified in the basket is exported.

NOTE:

Depending on the size of the application and the basket, this may take a while.

Once the export is finished, the DOS command box and the USoft Application window are closed.
In the Repository Manager, the message Application export finished appears.
6.You can now click the View XML button to open and inspect the generated XML.

Applications that are exported using a basket appear on the Explore tab of the catalog, in the basket exports folder.

In the catalog, double-click a basket export to open the XML document in an external editor. The context menu contains a Delete… option to delete the file on disk.
