| <div class="p" id="twpub_wst__twpub_auto2"><a name="twpub_wst__twpub_auto2"><!-- --></a>In the workbench, you have several options to choose |
| for the <em>Publishing</em> settings. You can set these <em>Publishing</em> settings |
| by going into the Servers view, right-click the server and select <span class="uicontrol">Open</span>. |
| The Server editor opens. In the <em>Overview</em> page of the server |
| editor, under the <span class="uicontrol">Publishing</span> settings, you |
| are going to find the following settings:<ul> |
| <li><span class="uicontrol">Never publish automatically</span>: Specifies |
| the workbench should never publish files to the server.</li> |
| |
| <li><span class="uicontrol">Automatically publish when resources change</span>: |
| Specifies the workbench to issue a publish after changes on a file |
| that is associated to the server are saved and a full time interval |
| has passed in the <span class="uicontrol">Publishing interval</span> setting.</li> |
| |
| <li><span class="uicontrol">Automatically publish after a build event</span>: |
| Specifies the workbench to issue a publish after changes on a file |
| that requires a build and is associated to the server are saved, and |
| a full time interval has passed in the <span class="uicontrol">Publishing interval</span> setting.</li> |
| |
| <li><span class="uicontrol">Publishing interval (in seconds)</span>: Specifies |
| the number of <em>seconds</em> that needs to pass before the workbench |
| calls a publish to happen on the server. However, if you make a subsequent |
| change to the files before this time interval has completed, the publish |
| is delayed as the timer is reset. The workbench makes a publish to |
| the server only after the full time interval has passed. If you set |
| the publishing interval to 0 seconds, an immediate publish should |
| happen after changes on a file are saved.</li> |
