Deploy the package

Use the contextual menu to deploy a package to a local or remote Genero Application Server (GAS) from the Projects view.

You have created a package in Genero Studio for an application server (with a .gar or .jar extension).

You can use a contextual menu to deploy packages created using Package nodes in the Genero Studio Project view.

  1. Select the configuration for the Genero Application Server.
    Note: If you don't have an existing configuration for your Application Server, you can create one using the Genero Configuration Management and Genero Application Server Management dialogs.
  2. Right-click the Package node in the Project view and select Deploy.
    The Deploy action executes the commands in the Deploy rule and you can follow the progress of the deployment in the Output view. The archive is deployed to the $(res.appdata.path)/deployment directory defined in the GAS configuration file, as.xcf, and a timestamp is added to the name of the deployment directory. Configuration files are copied automatically to the Group directory defined in the as.xcf file.
