Create a directory for storing your AMB work files.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the AppMaster Builder AddPack has been installed, and applies only to Windows platforms.
Requirements
Before attempting this tutorial, you must complete
Tutorial: Start AppMaster Builder in
Enterprise Developer
for Eclipse
If you have closed
Enterprise Developer, start it; then open the AppMaster Builder perspective.
- Create the user area
- Before you start creating applications, AMB needs to know where you want to store your generated code, and also needs you to define an AMB user ID to identify your jobs in the Job Queue. You do these by creating an AMB user area.
- With the AppMaster Builder perspective active, click
User > User Area > Create.
The
User area directory field shows the default AMB user area parent directory, which is
%PUBLIC%\Documents\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\AMBWorkArea.
- In the
User name field, type your name, or a name you want to use as your AMB user ID. This user name is your AMB user ID.
- Click
Create.
AMB creates a new directory of the same name as your provided AMB user ID. This new directory is a subdirectory to the AMB user area parent directory shown in the
User area directory field.
- Click
Exit to close the Create User Area dialog box.
This completes the tutorial. Next, please complete
Tutorial: Create Projects.
