Building Projects with Custom Application Platform Project Builders
You can use custom project builders to build your Application Platform projects. The custom builders execute the Designer clean build, incremental build, and full build actions, and at the same time perform Application Platform tasks in the background.
The custom project builders for Application Platform are installed after you enable the Application Platform Core facet for your project.
To build a project with one of the custom build actions
1. In Designer, go to Project menu, and then click Build Project.
2. Select one of the custom builders supported for Application Platform projects:
Select this builder... | To... |
Application Platform Builder | Pass additional context information that is captured while your project is compiled to the Project Publisher. |
Application Platform Service Publishing Builder | Create additional files that are necessary to publish your project’s services in the OSGi container. |
Note: | Do not disable or remove the Application Platform project builders from your project. |
