Exporting a Project

You can export a project that can then be imported and shared with other developers.

Exported mobile application projects retain all of their reference information (data sources, roles, generated code, and so on), allowing you to use them later by importing them into other Unwired WorkSpace installations, or when migrating to a more current version of Unwired WorkSpace, or as part of collecting troubleshooting information.

Note: You cannot export project resources, such as services. You must export the entire project. However, you can copy, paste, or move services and folders between projects.
  1. To refresh the project to ensure that all project files are up to date, select File > Refresh from the main menu bar.
  2. Right-click the project you want to export in the WorkSpace Navigator and select File > Export from the main menu bar.

    The Export wizard opens.

  3. From the General node, select one of the following:
    Export options

    Archive file Select this method for projects that use double-byte characters in the service name.
    Note: If you do not select this option, the exported project will have corrupted service names.
