===Recompiling the Integrated Library===
Before you can use your new part, you'll need to recompile the SSI library. Lock SSI.LibPkg, then recompile {{altium-shortcut|c|c}}. The compilation process may take some time, and may throw errors at its conclusion. While that clearly means you ''can'' stop if any of those errors are on the part(s) you've added, it's best practice to try and fix them before finishing. A common error is a duplicate pin error, where two pins in a schematic symbol have the same designator. This can be easily corrected by changing one pin's designator. Make sure (if necessary) to change the pin mapping after doing so, by clicking on the paired footprint in the Editor pane to bring back the necessary dialogue. If you compile without errors on any parts you added, congratulations! Your component is now officially part of the SSI library. You'll just need to commit it to the SVN for others to use.
