Creating a Project

This section explains the basic procedure for creating a new project.

See TIBCO BusinessEvents Getting Started for tutorials on building and populating a basic TIBCO BusinessEvents project.

Tip: To import a TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio project into your workspace, select File > Import > General > Existing projects into Workspace. Do this for current release projects only.

To import a project from a prior release, see TIBCO BusinessEvents Installation.

Procedure

  1. Start TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio. In Windows, click Start > All Programs > TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio.
  2. If prompted, select or create the Eclipse workspace directory where your project files will be stored.
    Note: If you check the option to use this workspace as a default, you are not prompted again.
  3. In the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio UI, select File > New > Project > TIBCO BusinessEvents > Studio Project and click Next.
  4. In the New Studio Project field, enter a project name.

    Names follow Java variable naming restrictions. Do not use any reserved words.

  5. Accept the default location or clear the Use default location check box and specify the desired location.
  6. Click Finish.

Result

A new folder tree appears in BusinessEvents Studio Explorer with a default set of folders you can use as desired. The defaultVars folder, however, is required.

Note:
Source Control
 If the project is under source control using Perforce, editing a resource automatically checks out the resource and makes it writable.

If the file is not under Perforce but is read-only, you are prompted to make the file writable when a change is made.
