Using the jcode Utility

When building a Java service in your own IDE, use the jcode utility to perform actions that Designer performs when using Designer to build a Java service. These actions include compiling the Java service and saving it as code fragments that Designer uses to display the service in the Designer Java Service Editor.

jcode Command

Use to...

make
makeall

Examine a package to determine the source files that have been updated since the last compilation, then compile those source files and save the resulting class files in the classes directory of the package.

Use make to compile the source files in a single folder of a package.

Use makeall to compile the source files in all the folders of a package.

For more information, see Using jcode comp to Create Java Source from Fragments.

frag
fragall

Split the source files in a package into fragments that the jcode utility then stores in the namespace (ns) directory of the package. As a result, when you view the service in Designer, Designer displays the code from the updated fragments.

Use frag to fragment the source files in a single folder of a package.

Use fragall to fragment the source files in all the folders of a package.

For more information, see Using jcode comp to Create Java Source from Fragments.

comp

Build a composite from the code fragments defined in the namespace (ns) directory of a package to rebuild the Java source. The jcode utility saves the resulting Java source is in the source directory of the package.

Note:

Use this command if the Java source is lost or corrupted in some way and you need to recreate it.

When building a Java service in your own IDE, you use the two-step process of making (compiling) and fragmenting the source code often. To make these actions easier, the jcode utility supports the shortcut commands described in the following table. For more information about these shortcuts, see Using jcode Shortcut Commands.

jcode Shortcut	Use to...
update	Compile and fragment only source files that have changed for a single package.
upall	Compile and fragment only source files that have changed for all Integration Server packages.
hailmary	Compile and fragment all source files (whether they have changed or not) for all Integration Server packages.
