tempDirectory

When you generating a VGWebTransaction program or VGUIRecord into a Web project, the build descriptor option tempDirectory identifies the directory in which to store the JSP files. The name of each JSP file is as follows:
	 recordAlias.jsp
recordAlias
The name of the VGUI record or (if an alias is specified) the alias

The option tempDirectory is used only when a JSP file of the same name is in the WebContent\WEB-INF directory of the project to which output is generated.

If you do not specify a value for tempDirectory and if a JSP file with the name recordAlias.jsp is already in the directory WebContent\WEB-INF, the following statements apply:

A benefit of receiving the most recently generated JSP file is that you can copy and paste snippets of that file into the JSP file that you customized earlier. If you did not specify a value for tempDirectory, however, you should remove the file newrecordAlias.jsp from the Web project before deploying that project.

You use the build descriptor option genProject to direct output to a Web project. If you use the build descriptor option genDirectory instead, the effects are as follows:
