Build styles

A build style is a set of actions that provide push and build operations for i Projects.

Each i Project has its own build style. This can be configured on the properties page for that project.

Note: Other software vendors may supply build styles that work with their IBM® i products. When you select a build style for a project, the name of the supplier of that build style is shown. You can modify the workbench so that IBM-supplied build styles are removed.

When you run a build job, each compilation in the job that specifies OPTIONS(*EVENTF) generates an events file in the library where the module or program object is created. Events files found in the associated library are saved for the job in the temporary files directory so that they can be shown later. If a compilation does not generate an events file or if that events file is not in the associated library, those errors cannot be gathered. When a build job is run, the associated library becomes the current library for the job.
