Exporting Deployment Package Build Files

The mToolkit Deployment Package Editor supports exporting of Ant buildfiles that can be used to generate a deployment package. The manifest file of the deployment package is placed in the same directory as the generated Ant buildfile and is named as <dp_file_name>_manifest.mf. The default settings for the deployment package build files can be modified from the Build tab of the Deployment Package Project file displayed in the editor.

To export an Ant buildfile for future deployment package generations:

  1. (Optional) If you want to export an Ant buildfile for a specific deployment package without having to additionally browse the workspace for the source Deployment Package Project (.dpp) file, select the .dpp file in one of the Eclipse navigation views (e.g. Package Explorer). As a result, mToolkit will automatically fill in the location of the .dpp file in the export wizard.
  2. Use File > Export menu to launch the Eclipse Export wizard.
  3. Expand the Deployment Package Development node and select Ant Build Script to launch the corresponding wizard. Click Next.
  4. In the Ant Export Wizard view and specify if needed:

  5. Click Finish to export the Ant buildfile. To quit the operation, click Cancel.
