Chapter 5 Deploying and Starting an Adapter Using TIBCO Administrator : Creating an EAR File in TIBCO Designer

Creating an EAR File in TIBCO Designer
An Enterprise Archive file (EAR) contains the information about the adapter that you want to deploy. This could be one or more adapters, or one or more TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks process engines, or both.
Building an archive creates the EAR file, which you can then deploy from TIBCO Administrator. If you make changes to the business processes or adapter services included in the archive, you need to rebuild the archive. Saving the project does not affect the archive.
In TIBCO Designer, follow these steps to create an EAR:
1.
2.
Drag and drop the Enterprise Archive icon from the palette panel to the design panel.
If there are any configured adapter services in your project, an Adapter Archive resource becomes available in the palette panel.
3.
Select the Enterprise Archive created in step 2 and drag and drop the Adapter Archive icon from the Palettes panel to the Design Panel.
4.
5.
Select the Enterprise Archive created in step 2 and click Build Archive to create the archive file.
