Setting project properties

When a file is saved, the script files are checked for errors. The selection of error conditions that are detected by the script editor is configurable with the project properties.

About this task

The project properties file settings cause a selection of files to be created with a .prefs file extension. These files are placed in a .settings folder in the root of your project. These .prefs files can be checked in and out of a code control system and kept with the code throughout its lifecycle.
Note: Do not manually edit these files. Instead, use the project properties user interface to edit the files.
Only properties that are set to deviate from the default values are stored in these .prefs files.

Procedure

  1. Right-click on your project, and select Properties > Script operations.
    Important: Do not modify any of the Builders properties.
  2. Select whether you would like the type of problem that is detected by the check to be Ignored, flagged as a Error, or flagged as a Warning in the Checks against the IBM Product Master scripts box. The checks run on the various script operations that are used within the scripts. The scripts are changed to ensure that the usage of the script operations now matches the specified IBM® Product Master version.
