Automating builds with Build Command

You can automate the build of your rule and Java projects as rule applications outside Eclipse. This way, you do not need to install Rule Designer in the environment where build agents build projects.

Software requirements and known limitations

You must have installed a Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.8 or higher.

You cannot use Build Command to build projects that make use of classic rule projects or the classic rule engine. You can build COBOL and PL/I projects by following the same steps as for building rule or Java projects.

If you synchronize a project from Rule Designer to Decision Center, the files that you write for Build Command are not synchronized with the other project artifacts. You should keep these files in the source control environment where you store your rules.
