Choosing build descriptor options for Java generation

Build descriptor options are set in a Build Descriptor part. To choose build descriptor options for Java™ generation, follow these steps:
  1. In the EGL Source folder of your project, right-click on the build file that you want to use.
  2. In the pop-up menu, choose Open With > EGL Build Parts Editor. The EGL Build Parts Editor opens to the General Options view.
  3. On the left side of the view, there is a table that displays build descriptor options. You can either show all available options, or filter the list of build descriptor options.
    • To see all available build descriptor options, follow these steps:
      1. Clear the check box next to Show only specified options.
      2. In the drop-down list next to Build option filter, select All.
    • To filter the list of build descriptor options, follow these steps:
      1. Select the check box next to Show only specified options.
      2. Alternatively, you can choose an environment-specific filter in the Build option filter list. Filters with the word "Basic" after the name of the target environment list only the build descriptor options that are used most frequently; filters with the word "All" contain all options available for that environment.
  4. Once you have selected the options that you want to view, you can edit their values by clicking once on an option to select it, then clicking again in the Value field to make it editable.
  5. You can enter symbolic parameters on the right side of this view. Click the Add button at the bottom of the table to add a symbolic parameter. To edit the new symbolic parameter, click once in the field you want to edit. This will make the field editable. Once you have entered symbolic parameters, you can click the Remove button to delete them.

If you do not specify a value for a build descriptor option, the default for the option is used when the option is applicable in the generation context.
