<h2>Build Package (.pkg) File</h2>
<p>Select a <span class="code">.PKG</span> file in a project′s <em>/sis</em> folder in the <a href="../view_cpp_projects.htm">Project Explorer</a> view and right-click to display the context menu. Select <b>Symbian Build > Build PKG File</b> to build the package file and create the .sis installation file. This option is also available from an editor view when the file is open.

The <a href="../view_log.htm">Console</a> view displays the processing output. The .sis and .sisx files will appear in the project's <em>/sis</em> folder.</p>
