Creating an Application

Creating an Application

When you create an application, you select the objects to include in the application. Create an application when you want to deploy one or more objects so end users can access the data through third-party tools.
  1. Select a project or folder in the
    Object Explorer
    view.
  2. Click
    File
    New
    Application
    .
    The
    New Application
    dialog box appears.
  3. Enter a name for the application.
    The application name is part of the session log file name when you deploy the application. Depending on the application, the session log file name might include the application name, feature name, connection ID, and the date and time.
    The session log file name is included with the log directory path in the log file path. On Windows operating systems, the log file path has a limit of 259 characters. Consider the length limitation when you name the application.
  4. Click
    Browse
    to select the application location.
    You must create the application in a project or a folder.
  5. Click the Add button to add objects to the application.
    The
    Add Objects
    dialog box appears.
  6. Select one or more objects and click
    OK
    .
    The Developer tool lists the objects you select in the
    New Application
    dialog box.
  7. Select the
    Parameter Sets
    view to add parameter sets to the application. Click
    Finish
    to skip adding parameter sets.
    If you choose to add a parameter set, the Add Parameter Sets dialog box appears. If you click
    Finish
    , the Developer tool adds the application to the project or folder.
  8. To add parameter sets to the application, click the Add button.
    The
    Add Parameter Sets
    dialog box appears.
  9. Select the parameter sets to add to the application and click
    OK
    .
  10. Click
    Finish
    to create the application.
After you create an application, you deploy it to a Data Integration Service immediately, or deploy it to an application archive file to run later.
