Before you can build an external component executable, you must generate a skeleton. The skeleton for an external component is different than for a component that runs in-process, so regenerate skeletons if you have changed the component properties to run externally. “Generating required C++ files” describes how to generate the C++ code.
The executable indicated by the component properties General / C++ Executable must be deployed in the EAServer cpplib directory, as well as the library specified by the DLL Name field. The generated Makefile builds the library and executable and copies both to the cpplib directory when you run the “all” make target.
