Optional: Creating node icons

When a node is created, a set of default icons are created: clc16.gif and obj16.gif are used for the node in the palette on the Broker Application Development perspective, obj30.gif is used for the node in the Message Flow Editor (that is, when it is dragged-and dropped into a message flow). To change the default icons to your own icons, replace the supplied .gif files with your files in the icons subdirectory of the plug-in project.

You can test your node at this point. To do this you need to launch another instance of the workbench Start of change, see Enabling PDE runtime capabilitiesEnd of change, and select Run > Run as > Runtime Workbench. See the PDE Guide for more information about testing using the Runtime Workbench.
