What are the main changes vs the previous solution :
For a better user experience and usability, files will be organized by “Software packages” related to versions (ex : EBO 2022).
A package now includes all needed items for the installation of a given version:

Why we need it:
Suppose we have thousand of identical rooms, with inside one controller b3xxx or Xenta 1xx in example. Which is the best way we have now ? Binding Template.....
You make the graphic object (TGML page), create the objects (Input/Output/Value and programs) in your device and finally bind themselves. After that you can create your Binding template and replicate the last step by coping and paste thousands time graphics pages (one for each room) rebinding quickly all the the objects and property of the corresponding room.
Well done !!! But.... at the end of the work suppose that to your customer (and it happen very often) doesn't like the colours of the pipes or would like to add also the average room temperature or so on..... What you have to do ? Open manually thousands of graphics pages and modify each one or change TGML code externally by home made tools....Huge and unsafe work !
"Dynamic Binding":
In the above described situation suppose that SXWBO give us the possibility to bind dynamically objects and property to a single graphics page (graphics objects). In this way we can create only one graphic object during the engineering phase, and use the magic function, in runtime , each time we want to call thousands of room by pushing a button that call this function and passing to it the main path of the objects and properties of that room plus the rest of the effective property we want to bind........The result would be a new instance of the graphic page, with the right binded objects and properties for the room choosed.
In this way, we will be able to satisfy each customer request in few minutes, by changing only one graphic page and some rows of code to add or delete other needed bindings.
