Does anyone know what the various files are used for when exporting software.
The dump.l gives the components list, what about the others?

I know the components file is a list of the filenames in the dump and the dump.e file is an error listing is there was a problem building the dump. I assume the *.Z files are "zipped" in some Baan format that the import knows what to do with.

I know the dumps01.Z is the source code if any. I always thought they were sort of recognizable...
the 'f' for forms
the 'r' for reports
You can get different files depending on the components you have selected.
Looking through them it's hard to say exactly though, I don't have a full listing maybe someone does.

If you see the contents of dump.l you can see the file types generated -
components dumpc01.Z dumpl01.Z dumps01.Z installed.path
dump.e dumpd01.Z dumpo01.Z dumpt01.Z
dump.l dumpf01.Z dumpr01.Z iex1288.ready

That handy listing is the prefixes of the component names in the dump.l file. I did not think those matched the file names too. The dumps01.Z for instance I know is the source code, not 'sessions'. Also, if you choose menus you don't get a 'dumpm01.Z' file, it's embedded somewhere in the standard set of 5-6 files.
