<h1>Creating an orm.xml file</h1>
<p>If you opt not to create an <code>orm.xml</code> file when you create a JPA project, you can create one using the <a href="reference005.htm#CIAIJCCE">Mapping File Wizard</a>.</p>
<p>Use this procedure to create an <code>orm.xml</code> file:</p>
<ol start="1">
<li>
<p>From the Navigator or Package Explorer, select <span class="bold">File &gt; New &gt; Other</span>. The Select a Wizard dialog appears.</p>
<div class="figure"><a id="sthref49" name="sthref49"></a>
<p class="titleinfigure">The Select a Wizard Dialog</p>
<img src="img/select_a_wizard_mapping.png" alt="The Select a Wizard dialog with Mapping file selected." title="The Select a Wizard dialog with Mapping file selected." /><br /></div>
<!-- class="figure" --></li>
<li>
<p>Select <span class="bold">Mapping File</span> and then click <span class="bold">Next</span>. The Mapping File page appears.</p>
<div class="figure"><a id="sthref50" name="sthref50"></a>
<p class="titleinfigure">The Mapping File Page</p>
<img src="img/mapping_file_new.png" alt="The Mapping File page." title="The Mapping File page." /><br /></div>
<!-- class="figure" --></li>
<li>
<p>Define the properties in the page and click <span class="bold">Finish</span>. The <code>orm.xml</code> file appears in the src directory of the selected JPA project. You can manage the orm.xml file using the JPA Details view or through the XML Editor. See also <a href="ref_details_orm.htm#CACGDGHC">JPA Details view (for orm.xml)</a>.</p>
<div align="center">
<div class="inftblnote"><br />
<table class="Note oac_no_warn" summary="" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="left">
<p class="notep1">Note:</p>
The Mapping File Wizard will not allow you to proceed if you select a JPA project that already includes an <code>orm.xml</code> file.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br /></div>
