Configuring Adapter Environment Properties

The Adapter Environment Configuration properties contain parameters that define how the adapter connects to and interacts with other Java CAPS components within the Environment. The Environment properties are accessed from the NetBeans IDE Services window. Until you have successfully configured all adapters for your Java CAPS project, your project cannot be properly executed or deployed.

To Add an External System to the Environment

1. Expand the CAPS Environments, and right-click the Environment to which you want to add an External System.
2. From the context menu, select the type of External System to add (for example, File External System or Oracle External System).
3. Enter a name for the External System and then click OK.

To Configure the Environment Properties

1. From the NetBeans Services window, expand the CAPS Environment node.
2. Expand the Environment created for your project and locate the External System for your specific adapter.
3. Right-click the External System and select Properties.

   The Environment Configuration Properties window appears.
