Before you can generate the LSPS Application, make sure the following requirements are met:

• You have installed the Living Systems® Process Design Suite with SDK (run the LSPS installer and, in Step 5, make sure that both SDK and PDS are selected).
• You have installed Maven and set up the Maven repository.
• You have set up the Maven repository when you installed PDS.

• You have set up the M2_REPO variable in PDS.

  To create and set the M2_REPO variable, go to Window > Preferences; then Java > Build Path > Classpath Variables; click Add and define the M2_REPO variable.

To generate the LSPS Application from the provided maven artifact, do the following:

1. Go to File > New > Other.
2. In the New dialog, find and select LSPS Application.
3. Click Next.
4. In the New LSPS Application dialog, define the maven properties of the application.
5. Click Finish and wait for the building process to finish.

Note that the system also generated a launcher for the SDK Embedded Server and the compilation configuration for the LSPS Application, both accessible from the Run menu:

• The Maven build configuration for compilation of the application
• The Embedded Server configuration runs the SDK Embedded Server, and builds and deploys

Important: When you generate the application artifact, the system generates an SDK Embedded Server and its launcher called <YOURAPP> Embedded Server Launcher; note that this is a different server form the PDS Embedded Server and cannot be launched with the Start Embedded Server button the application EAR (it runs the main() method of the <APP_PACKAGE>.embedded.LSPSLauncher class).
