Create New Instructions

Server Guide : Packaging server applications : Packaging a Smalltalk image : Packaging into image components : Packaging a base or reusable module : Step 5: Producing the packaged base or reusable image : Create New Instructions

The first time you package a headless application in this passive image, the XD Packager Control Panel window will open with the Create New Instructions tab in the foreground. Subsequent packaging commands will open the XD Packager Control Panel with the Instructions In Memory tab in the foreground. If you are repackaging in a previously packaged application image, choose one of the previously generated packaging instructions.

1. To package a headless application as a base image, select Create New Instructions and then select a Base Image Component radio button. If you will have only one dependent IC, select the option for a single-dependent base IC. If you will have two or more dependent ICs, select the option for a multiple-dependent base IC.

2. To package the headless application as a reusable image, select Create New Instructions and then select a Reusable Image Component radio button.

Further, you can change the name of the packaged instruction by entering a new name in the input area to the right. In the example provided above, the image will be packaged as a Reusable Image Component with Packaging Instructions named XD Reusable Image Component.

Choosing Existing Instructions

If you are repackaging in a previously packaged application image, choose one of the previously generated packaging instructions.

In this case, the packaging instructions must be loaded in the development image.
