build-library

Command Reference

Description

Build a type library.

Generates a library jar file from the types found in the -basedir/modules, saving the jar file into the -targetdir. The file created is named "library-${opts.name}.jar".

The builddir should contain types like this:

${opts.basedir}/modules/
- Type1/
  - type.xml
  - ...
- Type2/
  - type.xml
  - ...

If the -upload flag is specified, the resulting library jar file will be uploaded to the server repository via the load-library command.

static: This command can be run outside of an object context.

Usage

ctl -m ProjectBuilder -c build-library [-archive <seed>] [-basedir <>] [-createjar <true>] [-name <>] [-targetdir <>] [-upload] [-version <1>]
