• Method 1: If a "Library" type project configuration is present in the project, simply select this project configuration and generate it: under the "Project" pane, in the "Generation" group, pull down "Generate configuration" and select "Generate current configuration".
• Method 2: Automatic library generation when deploying a dynamic WEBDEV site (most frequent case).

Creating the library when the setup is created

1. On the "Project" tab, in the "Generation" group, expand "Deploy site" and select "Generate and deploy site".
2. The wizard starts.
3. The library is automatically checked before it is generated. The wizard displays a warning step in the following cases:
   • New in SaaS
     Your project still contains compilation errors. In this case, it is advisable to correct compilation errors before generating the WEBDEV site library.
     Attention This feature is only available in WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025 Update 1. For more details, see Using new features exclusive to WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025.
   • The project contains untested functionalities. It is advisable to test all new WEBDEV site functionalities.
   In this case, you can cancel the generation wizard to carry out the necessary operations.
4. In the wizard, select the items to be integrated into the library. The library and the current project will have the same name. You can:
   • Add elements ("Add" button):
     Any type of file can be added to the list of elements inserted into the library: images, text files, ...
   • Remove elements ("Remove" button):
     The corresponding files and their dependencies will be ignored in the library.
   • Create the library from an existing library description ("WDU" button):
     When creating a WEBDEV library, a ".WDU" file with the same name is automatically created. This file contains all the references of the elements included in the library. All you have to do is select the WDU file containing the elements to take into account.
5. If your project uses components, the next step offerss to include these components in the library. Therefore, the files of the components are not directly visible in the files installed.
6. In the next step, specify the languages that will be included in the library. This option is used to reduce the size of the library for example. Only the current language is proposed by default. You have the ability to select:
   • One of the languages used by the project.
   • All project languages.
   • The current language in the editor.
7. In the next step, specify the characteristics of the library. This information is as follows:
   • the name of the company. For example, the name of the publisher.
   • a short description of the application purpose. For example: "Inventory management".
   • the version number of the site. This number is used to identify the different versions of the libraries created for the same site. This version number can be incremented whenever the library is recreated ("Increment version automatically").
8. The library is automatically generated.
9. Follow the different steps of the setup creation wizard.
