Property |
Description |
File/Directory Name |
Enter the absolute path on the build machine to the file/directory to add, or click either the File... or Directory... button to browse to the desired file or directory. An alias can also be used. |
File Type |
Determines how the specified file/directory will be copied to the target machine:
Automatically Detect File Type |
At build time, the following algorithm is used to determine if the file is binary or ASCII:
As bytes of the file are read, any byte < 0 or > 127 is flagged as binary. Otherwise, it is flagged as ASCII, and the end of line translations are performed as described below. |
ASCII |
At build time, the contents of the file are scanned to determine the type of line separator used. The appropriate target character sequence is obtained and used when the file is installed by using the Java line.separator system property. |
Binary |
At build time, the contents of the file are copied verbatim to the target machine, i.e., there is no translation performed on the file contents when the file is installed. |
|
The remaining properties only apply to an added directory. |
Include Subdirectories |
Set this property to "True" to include recursively add the entire directory tree, using the filters, if specified. |
Apply Filtering To |
Specifies whether the Include and/or Exclude filters should be applied to
"File Name Only - No Directory"
or both the
"Directory and File Name"
|
Include Filter |
Include only those files and/or directories that match the expression(s) specified in the text box. If left blank, then all files and/or directories are included. Two or more expressions can be entered by separating each with a semicolon (";"). |
Exclude Filter |
Excludes those files and/or directories that match the expression(s) specified in the text box. If left blank, then all of the files and/or directories are included or, if an expression(s) is typed in Include Filter, then all of the files and/or directories that match the expression(s) are included. The syntax is the same as for the Include Filter described above, and both filters can be used simultaneously to further delimit the files and/or directories added to the Files bean. Two or more expressions can be entered by separating each with a semicolon (";"). |
Use GNU Regular Expression |
If not checked, then the "*" and "?" characters can be used for wildcards, where "*" matches 0 or more characters, and "?" matches any single character. Two or more expressions can be entered, each separated with a semicolon (";").
If checked, then you must enter the expression using GNU regular expression syntax (see the MultiPlatform User's Guide Chapter 2.2 - Product Actions/Files/GNU Regular Expressions). Two or more expressions can be entered, each separated with a semicolon (";"). |
