CodeStation projects

CodeStation projects model external tools or libraries as IBM® UrbanCode™ Build projects.

With CodeStation projects, you can use third-party tools as dependencies, and test and track their status within an application. For example, if your application requires Java 5, you can create a CodeStation project and create an artifact set that contains the Java 5 files. Projects that require Java 5 can use the artifact set as a dependency. CodeStation projects can support multiple versions of the libraries in an artifact set. When the dependency is called during a build, your settings determine which version to use. For example, one process of your project can depend on library version 1 and another component can depend on version 2 of the same CodeStation project.

It is important to note that CodeStation projects cannot depend on other projects.
