EGL Server Guide for iSeries


Launching the build plan manually

You may wish to create a build plan and to invoke that plan at a later time. This case might occur, for example, if a network failure prevents you from preparing code on a remote machine at generation time.

To launch a build plan in this case, complete the following steps:

  1. Make sure that eglbatchgen.jar is in your Java classpath, as happens automatically on the machine where you install EGL. The jar file is in the WebSphere(R) Studio installation directory (like c:\myStudio), in the following subdirectory:
    wstools\eclipse\plugins\
    com.ibm.etools.egl.batchgeneration_version 
    
    version
    The installed version of the plugin; for example, 5.1.2
  2. Similarly, make sure that your PATH variable includes the following subdirectory of the WebSphere Studio installation directory:
    wstools\eclipse\plugins\
    com.ibm.etools.egl.distributedbuild_version
     
    
    version
    The installed version of the plugin; for example, 5.1.2
  3. From a command line, enter the following command:
    java com.ibm.etools.egl.distributedbuild.BuildPlanLauncher bp 
    
    bp
    The fully qualified path of the build plan file. For details on the name of the generated file, see the EGL help topic Generated output (reference).
