About this task
Open WebSphere Studio Application Developer (WSAD) and follow the
instructions below to set up a partitioned application. The steps shown are
using WebSphere Studio Application Developer (WSAD). However, if you use Rational
Application Developer (RAD), these steps should apply in most cases.
Procedure
- Create a Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE) project with
an enterprise bean module and an application client. Add the wpf.jar from
the project to the enterprise bean module. Right click on the enterprise bean
module and select the properties menu item.
- In the resulting properties window, click on the Add Variable button
to define a variable indicating where you have installed the WebSphere Extended
Deployment product.
- Click on the New... button. In the resulting New variable
window, create the variable. Call your new variable XD_HOME and
specify the path. Click OK. In the New Variable window
you should see XD_HOME listed.
- Click on the Extend... button. This
allows you to add a jar based on this variable to your project class path.
The use of a variable means that when multiple developers are using CVS then
each developer can set XD_HOME to a different directory easily and
still use the project when WebSphere Extended Deployment may be installed
in different directories
- In the resulting window, expand the lib subdirectory by selecting
the wpf.jar and click OK. If you need any other
jars, select those also.
- Optional: If you are using any additional jars in third
party products such as Log4J, then they should be added using a similar approach.
Define a variable and then extend it.
