Adding a Server Runtime Environment
When you first install Application Platform, you must add a server runtime for Application Platform, so that your projects can reference their runtime container. For the runtime configuration, use an absolute path to the product installation. Runtime containers are Designer configuration elements that define a set of product libraries that are included in project classpaths.
To add a server runtime environment for
Application Platform1. In Designer, go to Window menu and click Preferences.
2. In the Preferences dialog box, click Server, and then click Runtime Environments.
3. In the Server Runtime Environments dialog box click Add.
4. In the New Server Runtime Environment dialog box, select an Application Platform server, and then click Next.
Currently, the available servers are Integration Server and My webMethods Server, so you can select Application Platform Integration Server, Application Platform Integration Server (Remote), or My webMethods Server.
5. In the Designer installation root directory field, enter the path to the Software AG installation folder.
Depending on the type of server you are using, keep in mind the following:
If you are configuring
Integration Server runtime with a local
Integration Server, the installation folder must reside in a
Software AG_directory , which contains a
profiles directory.
If you are configuring
Integration Server runtime with a remote
Integration Server, you must also have an
Integration Server instance installed on the machine where
Designer is installed. In this way
Designer can access the server runtime's libraries when building projects.
If you are configuring
My webMethods Server runtime, the installation folder must reside in a
Software AG_directory , which contains a
My webMethods Server directory.
Important: The installation root directory of Designer is stored in the Eclipse workspace metadata area. If you install another instance of Designer on the same machine, you must not use the same workspace directory. Using the same workspace directory for more than one instance of Designer can lead to errors, since both instances will share the same runtime configuration and will communicate to the same server.
6. Click Finish.
After adding the server, you must configure it for your Application Platform projects.
