OpenTools Project Wizard

This wizard generates a new project for OpenTools development. It includes an OpenTools archive and a classes.opentools manifest file in the project, as well as setting the required libraries to "Open Tools SDK", and adding a runtime configuration (my OTRunner in JB7 and below, or the standard OpenToolRunner in JB8 and above).

Enter the following values to customise the wizard.

Name    Enter the name of the new project.
Type Select the format used to save the project settings.
Directory Enter or select the directory where the new project should be placed.
Include OpenTools help Check this box to add support for a help/documentation JAR to your project. When selected, the wizard adds a doco directory to the project's source and documentation paths. You should put your HTML and associated resource files here. A "Doco" folder is added to the project to provide access to this directory. A "Documentation" archive is also added, which collects up everything on your documentation path.

To install this tool, just copy its .jar file to the JBuilder/lib/ext directory and restart JBuilder. For online documentation (this page), copy the *Doc.jar file to the JBuilder/doc directory.
