Creating a Package

You can create a package as part of creating a project or independent of project creation.

See Creating a Project Package and Process.

    Procedure
  1. Right-click the Process Package folder under which you want to create the package and select New > Process Package.
  2. If you want to change the Packages Folder under which the package is created, click Browse or enter an existing folder name.
  3. Enter the name of the File or accept the default file name. The file name must have .xpdl as the extension. Click Next.
  4. The Package Information dialog box shows the name of the package and its default properties (for a full explanation, see step 10 in Creating a Project Package and Process).

    Either accept the default properties of the package, or modify them as necessary. Then, click Finish to create a process using the default template, or click Next to create a process using a different template.

  5. By default, a process is created with start and end events connected by sequence flow. The Select Template dialog box allows you to create a process using a different template. Select a template from those available and click Finish.
Result

The newly-created packages and any processes that you elected to create are displayed in the Project Explorer.

Note: TIBCO Business Studio restricts the number of open editors to 8 by default to avoid adverse performance issues. To edit this setting, go toWindow > Preferences > General > Editors and under Close editors automatically, edit the value for Number of opened editors before closing.
