Adding custom projects

If you need to add custom projects to the workspace, either start Ant APIs in Eclipse or use the import wizard in Rational Application Developer.

You can create customizations by adding Apache Ant scripts and their properties under the custom directory:
  • WCDE_installdir/Enterprise Deployment/custom/build.xml
  • WCDE_installdir/Enterprise Deployment/custom/properties/custom.properties

About this task

Examples of how to customize projects are found in the WCDE_installdir/setup/setup.xml and WCDE_installdir/bin/setup.bat files.

Procedure

  1. Extract the source of the custom projects from your Software Configuration Management repository or import them from the compressed files or local file system.
  2. Compile the custom project files in the workplace.
  3. Follow the examples in WCDE_installdir/setup/setup.xml to add similar targets in the WCDE_installdir/Enterprise Deployment/custom/build.xml file.
  4. Replicate the environment onto multiple workstations.
