Installing in Development IDE

See Also

When you test your module, it is advisable to deploy it to a different instance of the IDE. This way, if there are problems with your module that cause the IDE to crash, you will not lose the work you are doing in the development instance.

However, if you are confident of your module or if you are demonstrating module development, you may quickly want to see the effect of your module. In these cases, it is worth taking the risk that the module you have developed will cause the IDE to crash and, in the process, destroy your work.

To install a module in the target platform:

  1. Save your module.
  2. Right-click the module and choose Install/Reload in Development IDE.
