How Do I: Create a New Application?

An application is a set of projects in WebLogic Workshop. You must create a new application or open an existing one before you can begin working with other aspects of WebLogic Workshop.

To Create a New Application:

  1. From the File menu, choose New-->Application. The New Application dialog appears.
  2. Select the type of application you wish to create. The default application includes a Web project, which you can use to build web applications and web services.
  3. In the Directory field, specify the directory where the application folder will be created. By default your new application is created in the \weblogic81\samples\workshop folder under your BEA installation.
  4. In the Name field, enter a name for your new application.
  5. From the Server drop-down list, choose the server you want to use for your application. If you want to choose a server not in the list, click New and browse to the server you want to use.
  6. Click Create. If an application with that name already exists in the given directory, the existing application will not be overwritten and you will receive an error message. If the name does not exist, you will be asked whether to create a new directory. Click Yes.
  7. The new application appears in the Application window.
