Hi Dayle,

Would someone send me an example of the syntax to do this?

There is no support in the language for including other files.


I have an application that has its own access security file
and wants to include packages that have their own .acf files.

If this isn't the right approach, do I just call asSetFilename
multiple times?

The right approach is to have your IOC's build system create a single file out of the various components. If all you want is simple include then just cat them all together, but if you need something more complex you may have to write a script of some kind (perl, python, shell etc.) to generate the final file that the IOC will read. The msi tool might also be useful here.
