Chapter 2 Working with Apache Ant

Selecting a Target Application Server

PowerDesigner can generate EJBs, servlets, JSPs and application server specific descriptors.

In the Ant build script, PowerDesigner can generate server specific properties, tasks and targets to package and deploy the applications in any of the following target application servers:

• BEA WebLogic 6 and higher
• IBM WebSphere 5
• Sybase EAServer 4 and higher
• Apache Tomcat 4 and higher

To add the support of an application server:

1. Select Model→Extended Model Definitions.
2. Click on the Import tool in the List of Extended Model Definitions.
3. Click on the Application Server tab:
   
4. Select the application server you want to use
5. Click OK. The extended model definition is imported into the current model.

For more information about how to create EJBs for each application server, see the technical document for the specific server.
