Templates can be modified to meet installation requirements for preparing and running programs. These modifications are usually done by a system administrator or project leader. To modify the templates, create a new directory and copy all of the templates into that new directory from the default location. Make your changes to the copies, not to the original templates.

Because different projects can require different templates, it is important to have separate directories for each project. Each directory must contain copies of all the templates. Use the templateDir build descriptor option to specify the directory containing the templates to be used. If this option is not specified the templates in the default directory will be used.
