Build projects
When you build a project, the BlackBerry® IDE compiles your source files into Java® bytecode, performs preverification, and then packages the classes into a .cod file.
When you build a project, the BlackBerry IDE also builds any libraries on which the project depends, if necessary.
> On the Build menu, click Build All.
Note: To exclude projects from Build All, click the General tab on the project Properties window. Select Excluded from Build all.
- On the Project menu, click Set Active Projects.
- Select the check boxes beside the projects to activate.
- On the Build menu, click Build.
See "Activate and deactivate projects" for more information on setting active projects.
Note: Active projects appear in bold in the Workspace files view.
By default, the compiled .cod file uses the project name. To change this name, double-click the project file, click the Build tab, and type the output file name.
