Remarks

This class enables you to create, read, update, and delete X++ code and metadata.

Create a new, user-defined AOT project by extending from this class. Control the behavior of the project by overriding the methods of this class.

Create both Web projects and Help projects by creating classes that extend the ProjectNode class.
