You can use the Customization Editor to create custom project types. Once you create the custom project types, you can use this tool to edit, remove, import, and export them. The custom project types that you create appear on the Create an OpenEdge Project page of the New OpenEdge Project wizard.

Follow these steps to create a custom project type:

  1. In the OpenEdge Editor perspective, open the Customization Editor by selecting OpenEdge > Tools > Customization Editor.
  2. In the Available Extension Points tree view, click OpenEdge Custom Projects.
  3. Click Add.
    Note: Optionally, you can click on the Customization Editor toolbar to create a custom project type.
  4. Enter the appropriate values for the fields that appear under Project Type Configuration. See the Customization Editor reference help for detailed information about these fields.
  5. Save your changes (Select File > Save or click ).
  6. Restart Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge to make your changes take effect.
    Note: The Customization Editor displays a warning message each time you make changes to a custom project.
