Create a solution project along with a project to contain
the business object model.
About this task
To build your solution, you create a solution project and
a BOM project.
The solution project is an Eclipse project that references
the BOM project and the agent projects. When you create a solution
project, you can attach a BOM project or create one.
Procedure
- Open the Decision Insight perspective
().
- Click .
- Enter a name for the new solution project.
- Specify a solution symbolic name that complies with OSGi
naming conventions.
Typically, the symbolic name
follows the package names style syntax, for example com.example.solution.
The name can contain letters from a to z, digits from 0 to 9,
periods (.), or underscore (_) characters. Spaces and other special
characters are not supported.
- Optional: Select the language that you want to write your rules and aggregates in. The default language
is English. You can select different language settings for solution projects in the same workspace.
However, solution projects that share a BOM project must have the same language settings.
- Click Next.
- Attach a BOM project:
- If you do not have a BOM project in your workspace or if you
want to create one, select Create empty BOM project,
and enter a name for the BOM project.
- If you have a BOM project in your workspace, select Use
an existing BOM project, and select the BOM project from
the list.
- Click Finish.
Results
The solution project contains the following artifacts:
- The SOLUTION.MF manifest file that holds
the version information of the solution and the solution symbolic
name.
- The solution_properties.xml file where you
can add custom properties to the solution project.
- A Connectivity Definitions folder to store
the connectivity definition files.
- A Transformations folder to store XSL transformation
files for converting unrecognized inbound messages.
The solution project contains the reference to the BOM project.
Tip: To view the solution project references, right-click the
solution project, and click .
A <solution> -
Java Model folder is created along with the solution project.
This folder stores the executable object model that is generated from
the business object model. This project is referenced in the solution.
What to do next
You can now create the entity types and event types by importing
XML schemas or by writing definitions in a business model definition
file.
