<title id="twpub_title">Publishing your application</title>
<shortdesc id="twpub_shortdesc"><i>Publishing</i> involves copying
files (projects, resource files, and server configurations) to the
correct location for the server to find and use them. In the test
environments, these files may already be in the correct location.
In some cases, temporary copies of the server configurations may be
created. You can either publish your application automatically or
manually.</shortdesc>

and files on the server are synchronized. If they are not, the project
and the files are automatically updated when the server is either
started or restarted.</p><p id="twpub_p2">To publish your application
manually you can complete one of the following in the Servers view:</p><p
id="twpub_auto2">In the workbench, you have several options to choose
for the <i>Publishing</i> settings. You can set these <i>Publishing</i> settings
by going into the Servers view, right-click the server and select <uicontrol>Open</uicontrol>.
The Server editor opens. In the <i>Overview</i> page of the server
editor, under the <uicontrol>Publishing</uicontrol> settings, you
are going to find the following settings:<ul>
<li><uicontrol>Never publish automatically</uicontrol>: Specifies
the workbench should never publish files to the server.</li>
<li><uicontrol>Automatically publish when resources change</uicontrol>:
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 <uicontrol>Publishing interval</uicontrol> setting.</li>
<li><uicontrol>Automatically publish after a build event</uicontrol>:
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 <uicontrol>Publishing interval</uicontrol> setting.</li>
<li><uicontrol>Publishing interval (in seconds)</uicontrol>: Specifies
the number of <i>seconds</i> 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>
</ul></p><p id="twpub_auto3">In the workbench, the default setting
is the <b>Automatically publish when resources change</b> option is
enabled with a value set in the publishing interval.</p><p>In addition,

the tasks you want to run during publishing.</p><b id="twpub_manualtitle">Manually

to wait for the automatic publishing interval to pass or the <uicontrol>Never
publish automatically</uicontrol> option is enabled, at anytime you
can manually request the workbench to issue a publish command to the
server. Each manual publish command causes a single publishing request
to the server. To publish your application manually you can complete
one of the following in the Servers view:</p><?Pub Caret 75?><p><ul>
