Compiling an API

TIP: See additional configuration options for compilation directly on the API project (see Configuring the compilation and in the global settings).

Before you can use an API that has been created with the API Designer, the API must be compiled using the API Designer compiler.

The API Designer compiler can be opened from the API Designer, as well as from the Database Compiler. For more detailed information about the Database Compiler, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

A web project must be compiled in the following cases:

  • After changing a definition (API file or API project) in the API Designer

  • After changing certain system settings that require Database Compiler to be run

The API Designer compiler creates a set of DLL files from the project's XML definition and saves them in the database.

Methods of compiling

There are two ways to compile a web project:

  • Run a Release compilation to release a specific version of the project for use.

    NOTE: Changes within the API Designer do not affect the API as long as there is no release compilation.

  • Use a Debug compilation during the development phase for testing and debugging purposes. Debug compilation creates additional code to support the API Designer debugger. This means the DLL files are somewhat larger.

An API loads the latest compiled DLL files on startup. If these DLL files are updated, the web project reloads the new DLL files; however, only new sessions run with the code from the newly loaded DLLs.

Testing a compilation

The two types of compilation (Debug and Release compilation) can be tested in advance.

To test the compilation

  1. On the menu bar, click View | Start page.

  2. On the start page, expand the Compilation pane.

  3. In the Compilation pane, perform one of the following actions:

    • To test a debug compilation, enable the DEBUG option.

    • To test a release compilation, enable the RELEASE option.

  4. Click Test compilation.

    The Compilation log opens and shows compilation status and progress.

    The Tasks window opens. Use this to view and rectify any errors and warnings that arise during compilation. For more information, see Managing compilation errors and warnings (task window).

Starting a compilation

You can start two types of compilation (Debug and Release). If compilation completes without any errors, then the compiled API is written to the database.

To start compilation

  1. On the menu bar, click View | Start page.

  2. On the start page, expand the Compilation pane.

  3. In the Compilation pane, perform one of the following actions:

    • To start a debug compilation, enable the DEBUG option.

    • To start a release compilation, enable the RELEASE option.

  4. Click Compile.

    The Compilation log opens and shows compilation status and progress.

    The Tasks window opens if errors arise. Use this to view and rectify any errors and warnings that arise during compilation. For more information, see Managing compilation errors and warnings (task window).
