Creating connector modules

You can use wizards to create a connector module in your Java™ EE project.

Procedure

  1. In the Java EE perspective, right-click your enterprise application project and select New > Connector project. The Connector project wizard opens.
  2. In the Name field, type a name for the connector project. To change the default Project location, clear the Use default location checkbox and click the Browse button to select a new location.

    If you specify a non-default project location that is already being used by another project, the project creation fails.

  3. The Target runtime field is pre-populated with the selection from the enterprise project.
  4. In the Connector Module version field, accept the default value.
  5. Optional: Select a pre-defined project configuration from the Configurations drop-down list.
  6. Optional: Modify Configuration: If you want to modify the configuration details, click modify.
    • Select one or more project facets from the Project Facets list. To specify server runtime environments, click Runtimes and select one or more runtimes. After making your selections, you can save your custom configuration by clicking OK.
  7. Optional: Select the Add project to an EAR module check box to add the new module to an enterprise module (EAR) project. Type a new project name or select an existing enterprise module project from the drop-down list in the EAR Project Name combination box. Or, click New Project to launch the New EAR module Project wizard.
  8. Click Next.
  9. On the Connector Project page, in the Source Folder: field, specify a folder for your source files by clicking Add Folder or accept the default value (connectorModule).
  10. In the Output Folder: field, specify a folder for your output files or accept the default value (build\classes).
  11. Click Next. Select Generate ra.xml deployment descriptor if you want to create a deployment descriptor.
  12. Click Finish.
