Creating a build file with a resource associations part

To create a build file with a resource associations part:

  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 > Other > EGL > EGL Build File. Click Next.
  3. Select the project or folder that will contain the EGL build file. In the File name field, type the name of the EGL build file, for example MyEGLbuildParts. The extension .eglbld is required for the file name. An extension is automatically appended to the end of the file name if no extension or an invalid extension is specified.
  4. Click Next.
  5. Click Resource Associations, then click Next.
  6. Choose a name for your resource associations part that adheres to EGL part name conventions. In the Name field, type the name of your resource associations part.
  7. In the Description field, type a description of your part.
  8. Click Finish.
  9. To add an import statement to the EGL build file, see Adding an import statement to a build file.
