Accessing Samples

You can access the samples in TIBCO Business Studio™ for BusinessWorks™ from the File Explorer view.

Procedure

  1. Launch TIBCO Business Studio for BusinessWorks from $TIBCO_HOME\studio\<version>\eclipse\TIBCOBusinessStudio.exe.
    By default, TIBCO Business Studio for BusinessWorks opens the Design perspective.
  2. Click Help > BusinessWorks Samples.
    The Welcome screen is displayed with various available samples, for example, REST Bookstore - Basic, REST Bookstore - Database, Order Processing, and so on.

  3. Select the required sample.
    The File Explorer view displays a top level listing of all the samples.
    Note: If the workspace is from an older version, you need to locate the samples manually using the Open Directory to Browse button available on the File Explorer view. TIBCO Business Studio™ for BusinessWorks™ stores the samples at tibco-home/bw/6.6/samples.
  4. Navigate to the directory containing the sample you want to access and do the following:

    • Double-click the archive file, <sample_name>.zip, to import the sample application to your workspace. For example, double-click tibco.bw.sample.binding.rest.Basic.zip to import the application and the application module to your workspace. Alternatively, you can right-click the required project folder and click Import Selected Projects option to import the required application.
    • Click readme.link to open the sample Help page in the Reference - online view. For example, by clicking binding > rest > Basic > readme.link you can access the help page for Basic REST Sample application. You can access the help page of all samples by following the same procedure.
