Assemble your application code

You must assemble application modules including Web application archives (WAR) and resource adapter archives (RAR) for your application components before you can install them. Application assembly is the process of creating archive files that bundle all of the components belonging to an application and configuring the run-time behavior of these applications.

Before assembling, gather all of the code you need to package into your assembled modules including:

• Servlets, JavaServer Pages (JSP) files and other Web components
• Resource adapter (connector) implementations
• Other supporting classes and files

To assemble your application, use the WebSphere Development Studio for iSeries. For more information, see the WebSphere Development Studio Client Help.

Next step: Deploy your application in the Application development topic.
