Projects

A project is a collection of resources that together accomplish a task.

A project is the first resource that is created because it is the container for all other resources. In the WorkSpace Navigator, all resources must reside in projects.

In Database Development, a project typically stores related SQL files that can be used later for queries or in creating procedural objects.

In Service Development, a project stores all service-related files.

• Project Templates
  A project template provides some of the resources you need in a project.
• Project References
  If a project contains resources that you want to use in another project, you can set the appropriate references in the project properties of an existing project.
• Project Natures
  Project natures determine how a project can be used.
• Creating a Sybase Project
  You can create a Sybase project that contains folders and files to assist you in organizing and developing resources for your project.
• Creating a New Project From a Template
  Use a project template to create a new project.
• Managing Java Projects and Java Builder Settings
  The Java service editor and transformation services that use custom Java transformation code require a Java project or a project of another type in which the Java project nature is configured.
• Adding Project References to an Existing Project
  If a project contains resources that you want to use in another project, you can set the appropriate references in the project properties.
• Project Explorer
  The Project Explorer provides an integrated view of navigable models of J2EE deployment descriptors, Java artifacts (source folders, packages, and classes), navigable models of the available Web services, and specialized views of Web modules to simplify the development of dynamic Web applications.
• Copying a Project
  You can import a copy of an existing project into your workspace. When a project is copied, its resources are not actually copied, but are a reference to the original resource.
• Sharing a Project
  You can share a project that resides in a different location Sharing a project differs from copying a project. When you share a project, the project is not exported from its original location.
• Exporting a Project
  You can export a project that can then be imported and shared with other developers.
• Importing a Project
  You can import a copy of project or projects into your workspace as an archive file or directly from a local file system.
• Troubleshooting Projects
  Problem: You may experience problems with a project imported from an earlier version of Sybase WorkSpace.
