What is the System Library?

The System library is installed when you install Oracle Central Designer. It contains default items, codelists, templates, and other items that appear as choices and default values in Oracle Central Designer.

Oracle recommends that you do not modify information in the System library. Instead, copy item types from the System library to another library, and modify information in the new library.

When you create an item, you can choose to base it on any of the types in the libraries in the Library list, so make sure you add the new library to the list. Optionally, if you do not want the item types in the System library to appear as options, you can remove the System library from the Library list.

To view the Library list:

1. From the menu bar at the top of the Oracle Central Designer window, click File, then Open.
2. From the Project Types drop-down list, select Libraries.
