Before you start
To distribute a user-defined extension, you must include the runtime component - LIL or JAR file. For user-defined nodes only, but not for parsers, you must also include the workbench component that allows users to add your nodes to their flows. This topic covers the workbench components only; to see which runtime components are needed, see Installing a user-defined extension on a broker domain.
The node project is an Eclipse plug-in. It is located in the workbench while it is being developed. When the project is tested to your satisfaction, you can prepare it for distribution.
The zip file is saved to the location you specified. If you developed your Java source code within the project, this is included in the zip file. You can add your C source code or compiled files to the zip file using any zip utility. You then have a self-contained package that you can distribute.
For installation on another system, see Installing a user-defined extension to current and past versions of the Broker.
If you want to distribute your node commercially, please see the PDE Guide for information about issues such as versioning and updating your user-defined node.
