You can use tags to bundle different sets of actions, panels, features, and components with build configurations. After creating a set of tags for a project, you need to assign an appropriate tag to each project element that you want to include in some build configurations but exclude from others.
When a group of project elements are associated with a given tag, and that tag is associated with a build configuration, all of those project elements are built for that build configuration.
Important • If a project element is not associated with any tag, that project element is included in all build configurations by default.
Considerations for Assigning Build Configuration Tags
In a project, features take precedence over components, which take precedence over actions. To avoid conflicts when you are assigning tags to project elements, you should pick one project element level to filter by: features, components, or actions. Mixing and matching is generally not recommended.
For example, if you assign a tag to a feature, do not assign a tag to an action that is installed with that feature. If you attempt to assign a tag to a project element that “belongs” to a higher-level project element that is already assigned a different tag, InstallAnywhere displays a warning message on the Tags subtab of that project element’s customizer.
Assigning a Tag to a Project Element
To assign an existing tag to a project element:
| 1. | Do one of the following: |
| • | To associate a tag with a feature or component: In the Advanced Designer, on the Organization page, click Features or Components. The Features view or the Components view opens. |
| • | To associate a tag with an action, panel, file, or other project element: In the Advanced Designer, on the Sequence page, click the appropriate type of sequence. The appropriate view opens. |
| 2. | Select a project element that you want to associate with a tag. |
| 3. | In the project element customizer at the bottom of the screen, click the Tags subtab. All of the tags defined in this project are listed. Tags that are associated with this project element are listed in the Associated Tags list, while the tags that not associated with this project element are listed in the Available Tags list. |
| 4. | To associate a tag with this project element, select a tag in the Available Tags list and then click the Add Tag button to move it to the Associated Tags list. |
To remove a tag from the Associated Tags list, select it then click the Remove Tag button.
