Converting a static library to a shared library

When you use the Convert to Application or Library wizards, you can convert one or more projects to static libraries. You can then convert a static library to a shared library manually

About this task

When you convert a project or application to a library, that library is a static library. To convert a static library to a shared library, complete the following steps.

Procedure

  1. Create a shared library in the IBM® Integration Toolkit by clicking File > New > Library.
  2. Enter a temporary name for the shared library, then click Finish. The name must be unique.
  3. Move the contents of the static library to the shared library. A message warns that moving resources to another location breaks project references. Accept this message. You will fix the broken references by deleting the static library and renaming the shared library.
  4. Delete the static library and its contents.
  5. Right-click the shared library, click Rename, and enter the name of the static library that you deleted. By renaming the shared library, broken project references are fixed.

Results

The new shared library is shown in the Application Development view with the appropriate icon for a shared library (). If the shared library is referenced by another resource, it is shown in the Referenced Libraries folder for that resource.
