Installing and Uninstalling a Created Plug-in

BusinessWorks Plug-in Development Kit generates a p2 installer for a created plug-in. You can install and uninstall the created plug-in by using Eclipse Update Manager.

After generating the p2 installer for a created plug-in as described in Creating an Installer for a Plug-in, the following folders are created in the installer folder:
  • The PaletteName-P2Installer folder contains the JAR files and plug-in features.

    You can use this installer to install the created palette in TIBCO Business Studio by using Eclipse Update Manager.

    See Installing a Created Plug-in for more details about how to install the created plug-in, and see Uninstalling a Created Plug-in for more details about how to uninstall a plug-in.

  • The PaletteName-RuntimeInstaller folder contains runtime features of the plug-in.

    You can use this installer to install only the runtime component by using the command line.

To install or uninstall the runtime component of a plug-in:
  1. Open the command line and switch to the directory of the PaletteName-RuntimeInstaller folder where the devkitPackager.jar file is located.
  2. Enter the following command to install the runtime component:

    java -jar devkitpackager.jar -ri install -th tibcohome -i installerfolder

  3. Enter the following command to uninstall the runtime component:

    java -jar devkitpackager.jar -ri uniinstall -th tibcohome -i installerfolder -v version_number

where
  • -th tibcohome is the directory where TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks is installed. For example, c:\tibco_bw6.
  • -i install is the directory that contains the generated p2 installer.
  • -v version_number is the version of the plug-in that you want to uninstall.
