Deploying and Testing the Development Component 

Use

When the development of your DC is complete, you can deploy it to the remote portal for debugging and testing.

Procedure

Deploying the Development Component

...

       1.      Activate the Enterprise Portal perspective with Window → Open Perspective → Other… → Enterprise Portal.

       2.      Locate your DC in the Portal Explorer.

       3.      In the context menu of the DC, choose Development Component → Deploy. 

 

Testing the Development Component

Note the following restrictions for testing on the remote portal:

●      Only one person can debug and trace. Simultaneous debugging is not possible.

●      After deployment, you always restart the Application Server Java (or at least the portal service) to activate the deployed components. Therefore, if several developers are sharing a test portal, it is essential to coordinate deployment.

●      If several developers write code locally and then deploy on a shared remote portal, unexpected errors may occur.
