Deploying the Model 

Use

The models that you create in Visual Composer are saved in Generic Modeling Language (GML) format. When you compile your model, the GML format is converted into XGL format. When you deploy your model, the compilation process is performed and then the XGL code is compiled into the supported runtime, such as Web Dynpro. When you deploy a model, all models in the current model’s development component are automatically compiled and deployed.

For more information, see Compiling and Deploying Models.

Prerequisites

●      The model that you want to deploy is open and saved.

●      You have specified whether the component should be deployed as an application, either using the default setting in the Options pane (Tools → Options) or using the component-specific setting in the Configure task panel.

Procedure

...

       1.      Click the Deploy button in the task-panel toolbar.

       2.      To deploy all components throughout the dependency chain, select the Include dependencies checkbox. Any components referenced from the current model, any components referenced from the referenced components, and so on, are all deployed, regardless of the development component in which they are located (meaning that if a referenced model resides in another development component, all models in that development component are also deployed). Depending on the length of the dependency chain, this may take some time.

       3.      Click Deploy.

Result

The model is compiled and deployed. If you specified that the model should be deployed as an application, you can run the application from the Results area by expanding the relevant development component and runtime provider, and clicking the application link. The different runtime providers displayed depend on the runtime provider configuration for the component (Tools → Options → View Runtime Configuration). For Web Dynpro, deployed applications can be run in both Web Dynpro HTML and Web Dynpro Flex.
