Restriction: This functionality requires
Micro Focus Enterprise Developer UNIX Components.
- While in the PL/I perspective, click
File > New > Remote PL/I Project.
- In the
Remote PL/I Project wizard, enter a project name.
- Specify whether the project should use the
Remote file system (RSE) or the
Network file system (SAMBA, NFS, etc...) file system to interact with the remote host.
- The Remote System Explorer (RSE) is a toolkit in the Eclipse IDE Workbench that enables you to connect and work with a variety of remote systems.
Restriction: The following tools do not work with files that are part of a remote project created using the Remote System Explorer (RSE) connection type:
- Classic Data File Tools
- Data File Tools (Technology Preview)
- The Network File System (NFS) protocol enables a client machine to access files over a network connection in a similar manner to how local storage on the client machine is accessed.
- Click
Next.
- Select or browse for a project template and click
Next.
- In the
Remote settings section, choose the
Connection name from the list. Alternatively, click
New Connection and use the
New Connection wizard to create a new connection.
- In the
Remote location field, enter the location of the project on the remote host. You can use the
Browse dialog box to browse the remote host's file system.
Note: For a network file system such as NFS or Samba, the
Remote location value should be the UNIX or Linux representation of the path as specified in
Location. For example, a location of
X:NFS-mounted-drive location\project name can be represented by a remote location of
/home/users/my-folder.
- Click
Finish.
This creates the project and displays it in the PL/I Explorer.
