- Double-click on a selected Deployment Package Project file in one of the navigation views to open the Deployment Package Editor and go the Headers tab.
- Then do one of the following:
- To add a new entry to the table:
- Click the New button.
- In the cells of the displayed empty row, specify the following properties:
- Click on the Key column of the header and select a deployment package header name from the drop-down list.
- Type the desired value on the Value column of the header.
- To edit an existing header record, click on the cell containing the header name or value and change its content.
- To make use of the changes you made, save the Deployment Package Project file.
Note: Make sure that you use the right value syntax for the manifest headers of the deployment package which are introduced in the OSGi Service Platform Compendium Specification, Release 4.2.
