You can add these objects to your product in BladePack:
For a DataBlade module, the minimum you need is the project.bld or project.jar file and the SQL script files. These files are automatically added to the Files to Install folder when you open a project.prd file.
In addition, consider adding documentation, help, applications, and other files to support your DataBlade module.
If you are packaging an upgrade, you might need to specify files or directories to delete in the old installation.
The object appears on the Files/Directories page.
The following sections describe the properties of the objects on the Files/Directories page.
The following table lists properties you define when you add files and directories to install or delete.
You can have multiple operating system-specific files to install. See Local Paths for Files for Multiple Operating Systems for more information.
The directory in which the file or directory is installed.
See Specifying a Target Directory for more information.
See Assigning to Components for more information on assigning to components.
Options for copying files, including whether the file is installed only if it has the same or later date or version than the existing file. The default is None.
If you have files that are operating-system-specific, put them in a directory structure that is the same except for one directory, which is named for the operating system. When you add the file to your BladePack project, replace the directory named for the operating system with %OS%.
For example, if you compile your C or C++ DataBlade module on Sun Solaris and Windows, you have two project.bld files, one in each of these directories:
Add the project/src/c/Solaris-sparc/project.bld file to the Files to Install folder and then replace Solaris-sparc with %OS%. When you build the BladePack project for Sun Solaris and Windows, BladePack adds the appropriate project.bld file to each project.
For a Java DataBlade module, you have only one version of the project.jar file, which is in the project/src/java directory.
For UNIX, the only option in the list for the Directory on target machine field is __home. This is the directory the installer chooses during the installation process. By default this directory is $INFORMIXDIR.
For the DataBlade module files (project.bld or project.jar and the SQL scripts), you should specify the extend/project directory as the target directory under the $INFORMIXDIR directory.
