How to Modify the EGL File Location Algorithm Used by Stage 1 of the VisualAge Generator on Smalltalk to Enterprise Generation Language Migration Tool

Overview This paper is intended for customers who are migrating from VisualAge Generator (VAGen) on Smalltalk to Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) and are interested in customizing the algorithm that determines the file placement of the VAGen parts in the EGL workspace. It discusses what Smalltalk class needs to be changed, what methods need to be added, what methods need to be modified, and how the changes work. In addition, this paper provides a sample of the modified Smalltalk script that one can use as a guide to help to understand and create the own modifications.
