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.
    This image shows the New Application dialog box. The dialog box shows properties for the application name, location, and type. It also lists the objects that you add to the application.
  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. Select the application type. You can select Full or Incremental.
    After you create the application, you cannot edit the application type.
  6. Click the Add button to add objects to the application.
    The
    Add Objects
    dialog box appears.
  7. Select one or more objects and click
    OK
    .
    The Developer tool lists the objects you select in the
    New Application
    dialog box.
  8. Click
    Finish
    to create the application.
After you create an application, you can deploy it to a Data Integration Service or to an application archive file.
