Editing Project Attributes
Projects have a set of attributes that define their individual characteristics, such as the options to use to build the project. You supply values for some attributes when you create the project; the Java WorkShop supplies default values for all other attributes. You can view and edit attributes using the Project Manager.
Open the Project Manager in one of the following ways:
- Click the Project Manager control

in the WorkShop tool bar. You will be editing the current project.
- Choose Project => Edit and select a project name.
The Project Manager contains six attribute tabs:
- General--Information
about the project, including name, type, and source directory.
- Build--Information required to compile the project
- Debug/Browse--Information required to debug and browse the project source files.
- Run--Information required to execute the project. The attributes you see depend on the whether you are editing an applet, standalone program, image, or remote applet.
- Publish--Information required to publish the project.
- Portfolio-Information required to view the project in a portfolio.
If you change an input field in a tab, click the Apply button to enter the changes before moving to another tab.
If an input field does not apply to the type of project you are editing, it is grayed out.
