Build options have two possible values: INCLUDE and EXCLUDE. If you specify an attribute as being included, then the Application Express engine considers it part of the application definition at run time. Conversely, if you specify an attribute as being excluded, then the Application Express engine treats it as if it did not exist.
To include or exclude a build option:
On the Workspace home page, click the Application Builder icon.
Select an application.
On the Application Builder home page, click Shared Components.
Under Application, click Build Options.
Select the appropriate build option.
The Create/Edit Build Option page appears.
For Status, select either INCLUDE or EXCLUDE.
Once you create a build option, you can select it for a page, a component (report, chart, or form), a specific page control (button, item, list of value), and another shared component (breadcrumb, list, or tab). You apply build options to a page, component, page control, or shared component by navigating to the appropriate attributes page. Most attributes pages contain a Configuration section where you can select defined build options.
