3 Setting up the Bank Example

3.5 Building the Bank client and server

We can now build the client and server applications for the demo.

: 1. Start Functional Developer.

The client and server projects are available in the Examples dialog. Either choose Open Example Project in the initial dialog as Functional Developer starts up, or choose Help > Open Example Project... from the main window.

: 2. In the Examples dialog, open the Bank-Client project.
: 3. In the Bank-Client project window, choose Project > Build.

The IDL compiler, Scepter, is invoked automatically during the build process. It compiles the file bank.idl to generate the source code for the protocol and stubs libraries.

: 4. Bring up the Examples dialog again, and open the Bank-Server project.
: 5. In the Bank-Server project window, choose Project > Build.
