Building a project for monitoring

After you configure HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE and your application, you must build your project to instrument the source code of the application with the new configuration settings.

Procedure

In the Project explorer view, right click your project folder and select Build Project.
Note: You can alternatively instrument the source code of the application with the attolc4 instrumentor command-line tool. For more details, see Instrumenting and Compiling the Source Code.
When you build your project, two files are created: an executable file (.exe file) with an embedded runtime and a .mnt file that contains the communication parameters and the description of all the global variables of your project.

What to do next

You must run the application.
Note:
  • If you run your application from the command tool, click Properties > Resources contextual menu to find the location of the execution file.
  • To run your application from the Project Explorer view, right-click the execution file and select Run as > Instrumented Application.
