How to Run WinVMJ Composer

It is now time to compile and run the product.

Prerequisites

1. Generate modules from UML-DOP before proceeding to the next steps.
2. Move the generated modules from your UML-DOP directory to the modules directory in the project where you want to generate them. You can use this example if you want.

Generating a Product

The product generation starts by creating a new configuration:

  1. The configuration is defined in the directory configs.
  2. Right click on the project, then select NEW -> OTHER -> FeatureIDE -> Configuration File.
  3. Define the configuration file's name to represent the product's name.
  4. Select the required features, then right click on the configuration file and choose FeatureIDE -> Set As Current Configuration.

Generated modules are available in the src directory. If the generated modules do not appear, ensure you have generated the modules from the UML and placed them in the modules directory.

  1. Right click on the src directory.
  2. Select FeatureIDE > WinVMJ > Compile.
