The New Project Template wizard creates a new project template.
To create a new project template:
- Right-click a module project and choose New > Project Template.
- In the Select Project page, you have to specify the project that
you want to make available as a project template or sample. You can use the Project drop-down list
to select an open project or you can click Browse to browse to a project in your filesystem.
Click Next.
- In the Name, Icon, and Location page, you have to set the following:
- Template Name. Specifies the name of the new project template.
- Display Name. Specifies the template's label. For example, you
will see this label in the Module Manager. (Optional)
- Category. Specifies the template's category. For example, this will
enable the user to find the template more easily in the New Project wizard. (Optional)
- Package. Specifies the name of the package where the classes will be housed.
Click Finish.
After completing the wizard, you can do one or more of the following:
- Tweak the layer.xml file to change the icon or rearrange the position
of the template in the New Project wizard.
- Change the description that will appear in the New Project wizard's
Description box.
