There are several ways to create applications in StreamBase Studio, described in various Help topics:
-
Create a project that includes a new, empty application EventFlow or StreamSQL application, then edit the files in StreamBase Studio. This method is described in Creating a New StreamBase Project.
-
Import an existing application file from your file system into a project. This method is described in Importing and Exporting Resources.
-
Create an application within an existing project, or link to an existing application in your file system, as described in this topic.
To create an application within an existing project or link to an application in your file system:
-
Open the New EventFlow or StreamSQL Application wizard using one of these methods:
-
Click → → or → → .
-
Click the or toolbar button. The following screen illustrates one way to choose either button:
-
-
Enter the parent folder where you want to add the application. The parent folder is either the project folder itself, or a subfolder within the project folder. Here are examples of both:
MyFirstApp MyFirstApp/myapps
-
Enter the application file name, including the
sbapporssqlextension. If you plan to link to a file in your file system (in the next step), you should (but are not required to) specify that file name. -
If you want to create a link to an existing file in your file system instead of creating a new application directly in your project, click Advanced and check the option, Link to file in the file system. Then, either enter the full path of the file (which can include a path variable defined with the button), or use the button to choose a file.
Path variables allow you to avoid references to a fixed location on your file system. Click the button to define path variables, as described in the Eclipse Workbench Help topic, Path variables.
