Local, Remote and Browse Paths 

Almost every command expects that its arguments or some of its option values are given as paths.

There are three ways of specifying a path:

●      Local path

The tool uses the local file system to store files and folders downloaded from the Design Time Repository (DTR) server. The path where a file or folder from the server is stored in the local file system, is the local path.

●      Remote path

Each file and folder on the server is exposed through a HTTP URL. The part of the URL after the host name, and possibly the port number, is called the remote path.

●      Browse path

The browse path of a resource is the path shown in the Repository Browser view in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.

 

If a file is exposed under the URL:

http://localhost:50000/dtr/ws/test/wsp1/src/a.java,

then its remote path is /dtr/ws/test/wsp1/src/a.java.
