The Skin Deployment File
The skinDeploy.xml file contains deployment information for the skin package. This deployment information is contained entirely as attributes of the root wm_xt_skin element.
Note: It is unnecessary to make any modifications to this file for a newly created custom skin package.
The following table lists the attributes of the wm_xt_skin element in the skinDeploy.xml file
Attribute
Description
name
The name of the skin package.
alias
A comma-separated list of aliases to the skin as used by My webMethods Server.
description
The display name for the skin as it appears in the user interface.
version
The version number of the skin. When you modify and release the skin package, you should increment the minor version number.
cssPreview
A semicolon-separated list of CSS style declarations that demonstrates the style on an html element in the user interface.
serversideResourcePath
A legacy attribute. The value of this attribute should always take the form /ui/skins/skin-name/ where skin-name is the skin's system name.
clientsideResourcePath
A legacy attribute. The value of this attribute should always take the form /ui/skins/skin-name/ where skin-name is the skin's system name.
Example
The Carbon Sailing skin package used as an example elsewhere in this guide has a skinDeploy.xml file that looks like this:
<wm_xt_skin name="wm_skin_carbon"
    alias="skin.wm_skin_carbon,skin.carbon"
    description="Carbon Sailing Skin"
    version="1.0"
    cssPreview="color:#fff; background-color:#6f6f60;"
    serversideResourcePath="/ui/skins/wm_skin_carbon/"
    clientsideResourcePath="/ui/skins/wm_skin_carbon/">
</wm_xt_skin>
