About Building Modules
See Also
The IDE uses an Ant build script to build your modules. The IDE generates the build
script based on the options you enter in the project's Project Properties dialog box.
You can set the module's dependencies, versioning, and packaging information in the
Project Properties dialog box. You can further customize program execution by editing
the Ant script and Ant properties for the project.
You can customize the build process by doing any of the following:
- Enter basic options, like module dependencies, packaging settings and versioning
information in the Project Properties dialog box.
- Customize the IDE-generated Ant targets or create new targets in build.xml.
To build a module:
- In the Projects window, right-click the node of the module project you want to build.
- Choose Build Project.
To build all the modules belonging to a module suite project, right-click the module suite project
and choose Build All.
- If the IDE does not support your desired build process, see the harness/README file.
This README file contains detailed descriptions of various file layouts and how to edit them.
