Hi,

The best would be if you could use the Alfresco SDK 2.2, see: http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/concepts/alfresco-sdk-intro.html

Setup environment: http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/concepts/alfresco-sdk-installing-prerequisite-software.html

Generating a so called All-In-One (AIO) project, where both platform and UI customizations can be implemented: http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/tasks/alfresco-sdk-tutorials-all-in-one-archetype.html

Importing into Eclipse: http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/tasks/alfresco-sdk-rad-eclipse-import-projects.html

Hi Martin,

Hi,

How are you currently managing your customizations?

I would recommend moving to an SDK project. So you can release and tag your changes.

thanks Martin for the solution.

As suggested by you I am using AIO archetype and made one share amp in which i am customizing and made this amp as part of AIO archetype.
