Java™ visual snippets are predefined pieces of Java code that you can use in your snippet.

About this task

To import a Java visual snippet, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. From the palette, click the Java visual snippet activity icon The Java visual snippet activity icon.
  2. In the Select a Java Visual Snippet wizard, browse the existing types and qualifiers, choose an appropriate snippet and click OK
  3. You can drop the activity into one of two places in your snippet:
    1. To drop it onto an empty area of the canvas, drag the cursor out over the canvas.
    2. To drop the activity into a structured activity that contains other activities, drag the cursor over the appropriate activity.
    In both cases, you will notice that the icon beside your cursor has a plus symbol when you are at a place where you are allowed to drop the activity, and a thick black line will mark the location more clearly. When the cursor becomes a crossed out circle, continue moving it until it becomes a plus sign again.
  4. Click where you want to drop the activity.

Your newly created Java visual snippet will appear.
