Creating an EGL source file

To create an EGL source file, do as follows:

  1. Identify a project or folder to contain the file. You must create a project or folder if you do not already have one.
  2. In the workbench, click File > New > EGL Source File.
  3. Select the project or folder that will contain the EGL file. Select the package that will contain the EGL file. In the EGL Source File Name field, type the name of the EGL file, for example myEGLFile.
  4. Click Finish to create the file. An extension (.egl) is automatically appended to the end of the file name. The EGL file appears in the Project Navigator view and automatically opens in the default EGL editor.
