Customizing automatic feature detection

Control which features are added to each project and resolve feature conflicts.

About this task

Automatic feature detection selects and enables features that an application needs. However, the automatic process can lead to conflicts among features. Customize automatic feature detection to fit your preferences and resolve conflicts.

Procedure

  1. Right-click the project and select Properties.
  2. Expand Liberty and select Required Features.
  3. Set the action for each feature to Always add, Prompt before adding, or Never add. Always add is the default. See Disabling automatic feature detection to set the default for all projects or to disable automatic feature detection.
  4. Resolve or ignore feature conflicts by using the Feature Conflict dialog box.
    1. The Feature Conflict dialog box appears when features conflict. New features are marked with new.
    2. Click Add... to add a feature, or select a feature and click Remove to remove it.
    3. Click OK after you resolve the conflicts.
      Note: Click Ignore to avoid conflict resolution. If conflicts are ignored, the server might not work as expected.
