MDK Development Cycle | MDK Wizard Configuration | Import a .war file into a new project | Export a project into a .war file
The SmartSync Wizard generates a basic SmartSync application.
The Smart Sync Wizard can be started with the icon
in the toolbar or with the Eclipse command: File > New > Other ...
> MDK Development Tools > SmartSync Project. A dialog window is displayed:
The dialog windows has two input fields:
Click the 'Finish' button to start the generation of the project.
The generated application can be deployed immediately. SmartSync applications have to be deployed with the MI Web Console the first time.
The code generation is controlled by templates that are stored in the projecttemplates
folder of the MDK plug-in (<Eclipse_home>/plugins/ com.sap.ip.me.mdk.developmentTools/projecttemplates).
The templates are separated by the MI runtime in JSP and AWT. Under the runtime
folder (JSP or AWT) is the folder smartsync that contains the templates.
The files have the extension .template and are regular text files which
contains "place holders" for the names specified by the user. The
"place holders" start with ${
followed by the key name
of the "place holder" and end with a }
.
You can change the templates so that the generated code suited better to your kind of applications.

The templates are overwritten with any update of the MDK plug-in. So make a backup of the templates you changed before installing a MDK plug-in update. |
