Defining a New Execution Type

See Also 

If the Execution Types provided with the IDE do not suit your development tasks, you can define a new execution type and use it as your default executor. The new execution type can call a new process or an existing process with different property settings.

To define a new execution type:

  1. From the main window, choose Tools and choose Options.
  2. In the Options window, expand the Debugging and Executing node.
  3. Right-click the Execution Types node and choose New and choose executor service.
  4. In the wizard, type a name for the executor and click Finish.
  5. Expand the Execution Types node and select the executor service you just created.
  6. Modify the properties to your preferred settings.
Tip The IDE creates a new execution type with basic property settings. To create a new execution type with an existing executor's properties, right-click the existing execution type in the Options window and choose Copy. Then right-click the Execution Types node and choose Paste and choose Copy.

To make the new execution type the default executor:

  1. In the Options window, expand the Editing node.
  2. Select the Java Sources node.
  3. Select the execution type in the Default Executor property.

    The new execution type is assigned to all files and templates for which you have not specifically assigned a execution type.
