The buildPlan build descriptor option
specifies whether a build plan is created during the generation process.
The build plan is placed in the directory identified by genDirectory build
descriptor option.
If you are generating Java™ code
into a project, no build plan is created, regardless of whether the
buildPlan build
descriptor option is YES or NO, but preparation occurs in either of
two situations:
- Whenever you build the project.
- Whenever you generate the source files; but only if you selected
the workbench preference Build automatically.
To set this preference:
- Click to open the Preferences window.
- At the left side of the Preferences window, expand General and
click Workspace.
- Select the Build automatically check box
if you want EGL to build your files automatically. When you select
this preference, EGL performs a build whenever you save a file. This
means that EGL validates any parts of the file that have changed,
and any other parts in the project that are called by the changed
part. Validation is done without using a build descriptor part.
You can create a build plan and invoke the plan at a later time.
For details, see Using a build plan after generation.
Values
