Defining application lineups: The process and preconditions
Though there are many ways to configure applications, the typical process that you might use for configuring applications into platform-specific lineups is as follows:
Some words of advice on defining application lineups:
• Only define special lineups when components in your applications are platform-specific. You can define lineups which specify expressions that test for any number of conditions. But, when you do so, you make it harder to maintain your applications.
• Specify Boolean expressions that test to true for only one condition. That is, for applications that have OS/2 and Windows lineups, only the expression for the OS/2 lineup should test to true when the product is running on an OS/2 system.
Preconditions
To define a lineup for an application, these conditions must exist:
• The application must be an edition.
• You must be the manager of the containing application.
• Each subapplication in the lineup must be an edition or a version. It cannot be a scratch edition.
Provided these conditions exist, you can define application lineups by completing steps illustrated in the following example.
