Making Your Business Components

Once BCED has created makefiles, you need to switch to a command shell to make your business components:

On UNIX Platforms:

On the command line, change directories to your $HOME/bced/myproject directory. You will find a makefile named [Project_Name].mkx.
Run the make command against the makefile:
```
$ make -f [Project_Name].mkx
```

The make command compiles all the *.java files in $HOME/bced/myproject/[Project_Name], placing the compiled *.class files in $HOME/bced/myclasses/[Project_Name]. It also copies all *.xml files. It then creates a [Project_Name].jar file which it places in your myclasses directory.

On Windows Platforms:

On the command line, change directories to C:\[BCED_HOME]\myproject directory. You will find a makefile named [Project_Name].mak.

Run the nmake command ¹ against the makefile:

[BCED_HOME]\myproject> nmake /f [Project_Name].mak

The nmake command compiles all the *.java files in [BCED_HOME]\myproject\[Project_Name], placing the compiled *.class files in [BCED_HOME]\myclasses\[Project_Name]. It also copies all *.xml files. It then creates a [Project_Name]Jar file which it places in your myclasses directory.

^1. These instructions assume you have obtained the nmake command from Microsoft.
