EGL Reference Guide for iSeries

Creating an EGL Web project

The New EGL Web project wizard is displayed. To create an EGL Web project, do as follows:

  1. In the Project name field, type a name for the project. By default, the project is placed in your workspace; but you can click Browse and choose a different location.
  2. Select how to specify a build descriptor, which is the part that directs processing at generation time:
  3. If you requested that a build descriptor be created automatically, you can place a value in the JNDI Name for SQL Connection field. The effect is to assign the name to which the default data source is bound in the JNDI registry at debug or generation time. (An example value is java:comp/env/jdbc/MyDB.) Your selection assigns a value to the build descriptor option sqlJNDIName. If the JNDI Name for SQL Connection field is already populated, the value was obtained from a Workbench preference, as described in Setting preferences for SQL database connections.
  4. In most cases, click Finish. To do additional customization (as is possible for any Web project), check Configure Advanced Options and click Next. Configure J2EE settings, then click Next. Select feature settings, then click Next. Select a page template, then click Finish.
