Creating Maven Project Artifacts

After you create a Maven project, create project artifacts to use in a custom-state bundle.

1. In the example subdirectory under main, delete the App.java file.
2. In the example subdirectory, under test, delete the AppTest.java file.
3. In the main directory, create a subdirectory called resources.
   The resources directory stores configuration files that SMS Builder needs when it loads state bundles.
4. In the resources directory, create these subdirectories:
   • META-INF – contents are packaged in the state bundle.
   • META-INF\spring – stores a configuration file that the Spring Framework uses.
   • META-INF\sample\conf – stores sample configuration property files; if you copy these files to <SMSBUILDER_HOME>\conf\cfgload, SMS Builder can load them dynamically.

   Configuration files are specific to a bundle. They identify what states and configurations to load, and how to link them together.

5. In the test directory, create these subdirectories:
   • java
   • resources
