Creating a Project

The first task of using a plug-in is creating a project. You can add resources and processes after creating a project. An Eclipse project is an application module configured for ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. An application module is a resource unit that is named, versioned, and packaged as a part of the application.

Procedure

  1. Start TIBCO Business Studio by using one of the following ways:
    • Microsoft Windows: click Start > All Programs > TIBCO > TIBCO_HOME > TIBCO Business Studio version number > Studio for Designers.
    • Linux: run the TIBCO Business Studio executable file located in the TIBCO_HOME/studio/version_number/eclipse directory
  2. From the menu, click File > New > BusinessWorks Resources to open the BusinessWorks Resource wizard.
  3. In the "Select a wizard" dialog box, click BusinessWorks Application Module and click Next to open the New BusinessWorks Application Module wizard.
    Note: There are several ways to open the New BusinessWorks Application Module dialog box and create a new project in TIBCO Business Studio. For more information, see the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks documentation.
  4. In the Project dialog box, configure the project you want to create:
    1. Type a name for the project that you are creating in the Project name field.
    2. By default, the created project is located in the workspace currently in use. Keep the Use default location.
    3. Keep the Create empty process and Create Application check boxes selected to automatically create an empty process and an application when creating a project.
    4. Click Finish to create the project.

Result

The project with the specified settings is displayed in the Project Explorer view.
