How to make default rendering customizations available in new HATS projects

If you want your default rendering customizations to appear the next time you create a new HATS project, follow these steps:
  1. Create a project and customize your default rendering options.
  2. Open the application.hap file for this project. For Web projects, it is located in \workspace_directory\project name\Web Content\WEB-INF\profiles\. For rich client projects, it is located in \workspace_directory\project name\profiles\.
  3. Copy the source between the <defaultRendering> and </defaultRendering> tags in the application.hap file and replace the source between the <defaultRendering> and </defaultRendering> tags in the application.hap file located under the installed HATS offering.
    For Web projects, the complete file path is:
    <shared_install_directory>\plugins\com.ibm.hats_nnn\predefined\
    projects\new\Web Content\WEB-INF\profiles\application.hap
    For rich client projects, the complete file path is:
    <shared_install_directory>\plugins\com.ibm.hats_nnn\predefined\
    projects\rcp\new\profiles\application.hap
    In the file paths above, shared_install_directory is the shared resources directory where you installed the HATS offering using IBM® Installation Manager, and nnn is the version and build level of HATS.
    Note:
    You must repeat this procedure after installing HATS maintenance. A new application.hap file will be located under a new com.ibm.hats_nnn directory structure.
