WOComponent .api files

 Hello everyone;



A recent disaster required me to re-generate my project.

I started a new project and added in all the WOCompents - but this process
did not generate the corresponding .api files.

It all seems to work fine, but sporadically I have some mysterious crashes
in deployment mode.



My question is: Could these crashes be due to the fact that the .api files
are not there? Are they essential?



If so, do I have to generate the .api's manually? Or is there a tool that
will build them automatically?



Thanking you in advance for your replies,



Cheers,

Bill.
