Adding and removing the project references for a user-defined pattern

Change the project references for a user-defined pattern so that you can change the source files in the user-defined pattern.

Before you begin

Complete the following task:

Procedure

To add or remove project references:

  1. In the Pattern Authoring editor, click the Source Files tab. Click Change Project References.
  2. To add a new project reference, select the project reference that you want to add and click OK.
    If you add a new project reference, none of the source files within the project reference are selected. To select source files for the new project reference, see Selecting the source files to use for a user-defined pattern. If your user-defined pattern requires referenced projects but they are not included as source files in the pattern, you must distribute the referenced projects to pattern users to ensure the user-defined pattern works.
  3. To remove a project reference, clear the project reference that you want to remove and click OK.
    If you remove a referenced project from the workspace, the source files are removed from the pattern authoring project but the project reference remains. If you later add the project back into the workspace, the source files are added to the pattern authoring project.
