Set the basic EGL preferences as follows:
- From the main menu, click .
- In the Preferences window, click EGL in
the tree.
- In the EGL Base section, select whether VisualAge® Generator compatibility is needed
in your environment. Ensure that the VisualAge Generator
compatibility check box is selected if your environment
requires compatibility.
- In the Encoding field, select the character-encoding
set that will be used when you create new EGL build (.eglbld) files.
The setting has no effect on existing build files. The default value
is UTF-8.
- Select features to be enabled by default for a new EGL project
in the Default EGL Project Features Choices.
- Select facets to be enabled by default for a new EGL web project
in the Default EGL Web Project Facet Choices section.
- If you are migrating code from VisualAge Generator,
EGL must determine the kind of web project to create when migrating
web transactions. Select a server runtime program to affect this decision
from the Code migration's default web runtime list,
or click New to set up a new server.
- Select the way you want EGL to respond when dependent projects
are not in the workspace. The Incomplete build path preference
has two possible values:
- Error (the default)
- If a dependent project is missing, EGL will not attempt to build
the project.
- Warning
- If a dependent project is missing, EGL will attempt to build the
project, showing individual errors for missing dependent parts.
- Click Apply to save the changes and remain
in the Preferences window. Click OK to save
the changes and exit the window.
