| <h1 class="topictitle1">Creating an application client project</h1> |
| <div><p>You can use a wizard to create a new application client project |
| and add it to a new or existing enterprise application project.</p> |
| <div class="section"> <p>Application client projects contain the resources needed for |
| application client modules. Application client projects contain programs that |
| run on networked client systems. An application client project is deployed |
| as a JAR file.</p> |
| <p>To create a J2EE application client project:</p> |
| </div> |
| <ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>In the J2EE perspective, click <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">File</span> > <span class="uicontrol">New</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Application Client Project</span></span>. The New Application Client Project window opens.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Name</span> field, type a name for the application |
| client project. </span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>To change the default <span class="uicontrol">Project location</span>, |
| click the <span class="uicontrol">Browse</span> button to select a new location. If |
| you specify a non-default project location that is already being used by another |
| project, the project creation will fail.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Show Advanced</span>.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Target runtime</span> drop-down list, select |
| the application server that you want to target for your development. This |
| selection affects the run time settings by modifying the class path entries |
| for the project.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Module version</span> drop-down list, select |
| the module version to which you want your application client project to adhere.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Specify whether you want to add the new module to an enterprise |
| application (EAR) project.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">EAR application</span> combination box, |
| type a new project name or select an existing enterprise application project |
| from the drop-down list. Or, click the <span class="uicontrol">New</span> button to |
| launch the New Enterprise Application Project wizard.</span> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If |
| you type a new EAR project name, the EAR project will be created in the default |
| location with the lowest compatible J2EE version based on the version of the |
| project being created. If you want to specify a different version or a different |
| location for the enterprise application, you must use the New Enterprise Application |
| Project wizard.</div> |
| </li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Finish</span>.</span></li> |
