Creating the Web Development Feature

Complete this task to create a Web Client Installation Feature for your version of the application server. This feature must be included in the installation package before it is deployed to the Web Client machine.

1. On the Deployment Server, log on to the Deployment environment (for example, DEP920 for Applications Release 9.2).

2. Access the GH9083 Package Assembly application.

3. Select Form > Features.

   

4. On Work With Packages, click the Add button.

   

5. On Work With Features, click the Add button.

   

6. On Feature Based Deployment Director, click the Next button.

   

7. On Feature Information, complete these fields:

   • Feature

     Enter a meaningful name for the feature. For example, if you are using Oracle WebLogic Server:

     WLSH4A

     If you are using IBM WebSphere Application Server, an example would be:

     WASH4A

     You can specify any name for the feature.

     Tip: Alternatively, you can provide the WAS Express version number (for example, WAS85H4A).
     Tip: This Feature Name is for display purposes only. It does not have to be any of these names:

   • Feature Type

     Enter the value 1.

   • Description

     Enter a description. For example:

     Web Development Objects (WLSH4A) for WebLogic

     or

     Web Development Objects (WASH4A) for WebSphere

     You can specify any text string for the description.

   • Required

     Ensure this option is selected.

   • Additional Install Processes

8. Click the Next button.

   

9. On Additional Install Processes, complete these fields:

   • Execute After Install

     For Tools Release 9.1 and greater, the Development Client installer does not use this flag. The default and unalterable behavior is to run the feature's installer after installing the Development Client.

   • Third Party

     Enter the name of the feature that you entered earlier. For example, if you are using WebLogic:

     WLSH4A

     If you are using WAS, an example would be:

     WASH4A

   • Description

     Enter a description. For example:

     Web Development Objects (WLSH4A) for WebLogic

     or

     Web Development Objects (WASH4A) for WebSphere

     You can specify any text string for the feature.

   • Executable Name

     Enter this value:

     setup.exe

   • Source Path

     Enter the path to the installation executable.

     For WLSH4A, the path would be:

     \\<deployment server name>\<release>\OneWorld Client Install\ThirdParty\WebDevFeature\WLSH4A\install

     For WASH4A, the path would be:
