Question - INI Fle parameter [Ctedit]Copy - does this copy cicode files?

Question

for Plant SCADA 2023R2 
 when using the INI Fle parameter [Ctedit]Copy on a client workstation - does this copy all newer cicode files that exist on the SCADA server? 
 in other words i shutdown the runtime on the client and restart, I see files are copied as the runtime starts, does this include all code files ?

Hi Alan, 
 My understanding is that Run/Copy only transfers files that are required by runtime. The Plant SCADA runtime does not actually use the *.ci (Cicode) files in runtime. It uses a compiled library file that contains the code in a format useable by runtime. 
 I've run a quick test, and have confirmed that Cicode files are not copied across. But I encourage you to do the same in your environment and confirm that it works as you expected. 
 Kind regards 
 Olivier

Thanks Olivier, 
 i found the same as you did. 
 But effectively the changes on server code files are implemented on run up.
