After you finish modifying the example export formatter, build
the customized export formatter plug-in. To use the new export formatter,
you must copy it to Manual Tester.
The example project that you copied from Manual Tester to Eclipse
includes an Ant build script that builds the export formatter.
To build
the export formatter and copy it to Manual Tester:
- In the Eclipse Package Explorer view, expand
the Example Exporter project.
- Right click the plugin.xml file and click to
create the Ant script (build.xml) that is used in the build process.
- Right click the build.xml file and click . Eclipse builds the .jar file,
example_export.jar.
- Using Microsoft Windows Explorer, create a plug-in folder in the
Manual Tester plugins directory. If Manual
Tester is installed in the default location, the plugins directory
is C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\SDP\6.0\ManualTest\eclipse\plugins\.
- Copy the plugin.xml file and the example_export.jar file from the
Example Exporter project to the plug-in folder you created.
