Specifying a Target Runtime Server

Designer 10.5 | webMethods CAF and OpenUI Development | Developing CAF Applications | Specifying a Target Runtime Server

You can use an application server other than My webMethods Server when creating Composite Application Framework dynamic web applications. The supported Composite Application Framework features depend on the version of the application server and the version of Java technology supported by the specific application server.

To specify a target runtime server for a web application

1. In the UI Development Perspective, click File > New > Web Application Project.

2. In the New Web Application Project dialog, in Project Name, type a name for the web application project.

Note:
When naming the project do not use specific characters. For more information, see About CAF File Names and Path Lengths.

3. In Target Runtime, click New Runtime to open the New Server Runtime Environment dialog box.

4. Expand the folder of a supported application server, click the server version to use for the application, and click Next.

5. In New Server Runtime Environment, select the installation directory for the server and click Finish to add the new server environment to the workspace.

When the new server appears in the Servers view, you can publish your application to the server. For more information, see Adding a Portlet Application Project to My webMethods Server and Publishing a Portlet Application to My webMethods Server.
