IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  Deploying a Rich UI application consists of generating all of your code into one single HTML file.  Doing so is fairly simple, and is done for you by the tooling.  For deployment you have three options:  Deploy as straight HTML artifacts  Deploy into a Dynamic Web Project targeted to WAS  Deploy into a Dynamic Web Project targeted to Tomcat  In any case, if services calls are made from within the application, we must make sure that the environment contains the Rich UI Proxy.  If deploying into a dynamic web project targeted to either WAS or Tomcat, this is taken care of for you!  If deploying as straight HTML artifacts, a proxy (possibly written in PHP) must be provided manually.

3. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  First lets switch our generation mode to Deployment  Go to Window  Preferences  EGL  Rich UI  Once the change has been made, click apply and OK.  The IDE will prompt you to ask if you want to re-generate all artifacts, click OK

4. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  Now that our code has been generated for deployment, lets deploy!  Right-click over the project and select Deploy EGL Rich UI Application

5. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  A wizard will pop-up, and for our purposes, we will select the following options.  Click Next

6. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  On the next screen in the wizard we are given the opportunity to name the output html file, asked where we want the code generated, and given the opportunity to make some globalization settings  We can either generate the code to an existing project, or have the wizard create a brand new Dynamic Web Project

7. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  Finally click Next and then Finish  Now expand the project where your code was generated and look under the WebContent folder.  Notice all of the generated artifacts and the main html file which contains all of the generated RUI Code

8. IBM Software Group | Rational software Deployment  For deployment, there exists one final step!  We must export and deploy the Dynamic Web Project.  This can be done by exporting a WAR file, or in the case of a WAS project, exporting an EAR file.  As long as you have generated your code to a Dynamic Web Project, all service calls should work since the proxy is also generated!
