Creating a Project

Use the Studio to create new projects that can run on the ESP Server.

Continuous queries are organized into projects that also define inputs, outputs, a schema and other options for processing event data.

  1. Select File > New > Project....
  2. Enter a valid project name:
    • Must start with a letter, underscore, or dollar sign
    • All other characters must be alphanumeric, underscore, or dollar sign
    • Must not contain spaces
    For example, enter MyFirstProject.
  3. In the Directory field, accept the default location or browse to a directory in which to store the new project folder.
    Studio creates three files in the named directory:
    • project_name.ccl – contains the CCL code.
    • project_name.cclnotation – contains the diagram that corresponds to the .ccl file.
    • project_name.ccr – contains the project configuration.

    For example, for a project directory named "trades," Studio creates a trades.ccl, trades.cclnotation, and trades.ccr file in the trades directory.

  4. Click Finish to create the project files.
    The new project opens in the Visual editor with one input stream, NEWSTREAM, and an inline schema ready for editing.
