3.8.3 Configure the Build

As soon as you create a project, you'll be notified there is nothing to build.

To configure the build follow the link in the build notification dialog or open the .dvt/default.build file.

In order to provide advanced functionality (like hyperlinks, autocomplete, design and class hierarchy, error signaling, etc.) DVT analyzes the source code files in your project. This analysis process is called build.

By default, DVT doesn't build anything. In order to build, DVT uses the arguments that you specify in one of the <name>.build files located in the .dvt folder of your project.

The default build configuration is .dvt/default.build. Here you list compilation directives in a similar way you would pass arguments to any simulator.

For more details see Build Configurations.
