26.20 Refactoring Scripts

In some situations - like porting code from a library to another, or when dealing with cross-project API refactoring - one has to perform several refactoring operations for many projects. DVT can help you automate such operations by providing scripted refactoring functionality. Refactoring scripts are XML files that describe a set of changes to be performed for a project (into source code, scripts or file/directory names). For instance, such a script can describe all the changes to be applied to a source base for migration between OVM and UVM libraries.
