Before you start
The node project is an Eclipse plug-in. It sits in the workbench while it is being developed. Each user of the workbench needs to have the node project in their install_dir\eclipse\plugins directory to be able to add the node to their message flows. When the project is tested to your satisfaction, you can prepare it for distribution.
The zip file is saved to the location you specified. If you developed your Java source code within the project, this is included in the zip file. You can add your C source code or compiled files to the zip file using any zip utility. You then have a self-contained package that you can distribute to all internal users.
If you want to distribute your node commercially, please see the PDE Guide for information about issues such as versioning and updating your plug-in.
