Build Time Variables Dialog Box

InstallAnywhere 2024 R2

The Build Time Variables dialog box opens when you click the Build Time Variables button in the Variables view of the Project page. This dialog box lists the build-time variables that have been defined for this project. Build-time variables are variables that have their values set at build time.

On the Build Time Variables dialog box, the variable name and value of each defined build time variable are listed.

When you are defining a build-time variable, instead of using the dollar symbol ($) as the variable delimiter (which is used for standard variables, such as $var$), you instead use the at sign (@) as the delimiter for build time variables, such as @var@ or @Apple@.

To add a build-time variable, click Edit Variables; this opens the Edit Build Time Variables dialog box.

Note:In addition to defining build-time variables using the Advanced Designer interface, you can also configure build-time variables using a property file or as environmental variables. For more information, see Resolving Variables at Build Time.
