Refresh the contents of a broker
archive (BAR) file by rebuilding it in the Broker Archive editor.
Alternatively, remove resources from your broker archive and, having
made the required changes, add them back again.
You are likely to change resources
that you have already added to your BAR file. BAR files that need
to be refreshed are shown with an "out-of-sync" icon
in
the Broker
Development view. (When any changes are made to deployable
files in the workspace that have previously been built in the broker
archive, the BAR file is considered to be inconsistent. The BAR file
is also inconsistent if any changes are made to the project to which
the files belong.)
To refresh the contents of a BAR file before
you deploy it, complete the following steps.
- Open the BAR file. The contents of the
BAR file are shown on the Manage page of the
Broker Archive editor.
- To refresh all the resources in the BAR file on the Manage page,
click Rebuild existing broker arcive entries
. A dialog box opens, showing progress. When the operation
is complete, click Details to see information
about what was refreshed, what was not, and why. If the refresh process
is successful, you see the same information that is placed in the
user log by each of the resource compilers.
Alternatively, you
can refresh the archive contents by right-clicking a BAR file in the
Broker
Development view and selecting Build
and Save Broker Archive. The broker archive is rebuilt
in the background.
You can
view the user and service logs on the User Log and Service Log pages
of the Broker Archive editor. Clear the contents of logs by clicking Remove (
).
- Optional: To view details about
the build of an individual deployable resource on the Manage page,
right-click the deployable resource and click Details.
The Properties view opens and the Details tab is displayed.
The Details tab shows the following details about the deployable resource:
- The workspace resource, with references to the linked workspace
resources (for example, .msgflow .mset, .xml,
and .xslt files).
- The status of the last compilation, which shows the user log entry
for the last compilation. You can copy text, but you cannot modify
it.
Next: Deploy the BAR file
by following the instructions in Deploying a broker archive file.
