Creating Application Package Definitions

This section discusses how to create a new application package or insert a new package or class into an application package.

To create a new application package, access Application Designer and select File, New, Application Package.

To insert a new package or class, open an application package definition. Select a package or subpackage and select Insert, Package or Insert, Application Class.

Application package names and application class names must begin with an alphabetic character and must consist of only alphanumeric characters and underscores ( _ ).

Note:

In certain cases you may encounter an error if you use Save As to create a new application package.

The error occurs when you choose to save the PeopleCode with the application package and the PeopleCode uses a %This system variable. The %This system variable is used in application class PeopleCode to refer to the current object.
