Creating a Project

The first task using the adapter is creating a project. After creating a project, you can create adapter configurations and add services.

An Eclipse project is an application module configured for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. An application module is the smallest unit of resources that is named, versioned, and packaged as part of an application.

Procedure

  1. Start TIBCO Business Studio using one of the following ways:
    • Microsoft Windows: click Start > All Programs > TIBCO > TIBCO_HOME > TIBCO Business Studio version_number > Studio for Designers.
    • Unix: run the TIBCO Business Studio executable located in the TIBCO_HOME/studio/version_number/eclipse directory.
  2. On the Workspace Launcher page, accept the default workspace, or click Browser to create a new workspace, and then click OK.
  3. From the main menu, click File > New > BusinessWorks Resources.
  4. In the BusinessWorks Resource window, click the BusinessWorks Application Module resource, and then click Next.
    Note: TIBCO BusinessWorks provides several ways to launch this wizard. For detailed information, see the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks documentation.
  5. In the Project window, enter a project name in the Project name field.
    To use the default location, keep the Use default location, Create empty process, and Create Application check boxes selected.
  6. Click Finish.

Result

Two folders are created with the given project name. One is a project folder, and the other is an application folder that packages the application module, named as application_module_name.application.

The project folder contains the Processes, Service Descriptors, Resources, Schemas, Module Descriptors folders, which are created automatically in the project.
