Edit Build Time Variables Dialog Box
InstallAnywhere 2024 R2
On the Edit Build Time Variables dialog box, which is opened by clicking the Edit Variables button on the Build Time Variables dialog box, you can add new build time variables to the project and edit existing build time variables. Build time variables are variables that have their values set at build time.
To add a build time variable, perform the following steps:
To add a build time variable:
1. | Click Add. A new, empty variable is added to the Build Time Variable list. |
2. | In the Build Time Variable column, enter a name for the new variable using the @ symbol as the variable delimiter. |
When defining a build time variable, instead of using the $ symbol as the variable delimiter (which is used for standard variables, such as $var$), you instead use the @ symbol as the delimiter for build time variables, such as @var@ or @Apple@.
3. | In the Value column, enter a value for the variable. |
4. | Click OK. The Edit Build Time Variables dialog box closes. The new build time variable is now listed on the Build Time Variables dialog box. |
5. | Click OK. |
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.
