Importing a Development Configuration
Use
In this step you configure the SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI) development environment. This means that you import a predefined development configuration into the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio. The development configuration supplies your local development environment with all the necessary information for adding infrastructure services and systems (for example Design Time Repository (DTR) workspaces, landscape directory and so on). In addition, the configuration contains a set of software components (SCs), to which a set of development components (DCs) is assigned, as per the SAP component model.
Prerequisites
You are logged on to the NWDI.
Procedure
...
1. In the Development Infrastructure perspective, choose the New Import Development Configuration icon.
2. In the dialog that appears, choose from where you want to import the development configuration.
3. If a log on pop up appears, log on to the System Landscape Directory (SLD).
4. Select the configuration to import. Usually you have dev workspace for development, and cons for consolidation tasks. The administration of the system landscape has defined each of these development configurations.
5. Complete the import.
Use
The corresponding nodes are displayed in the Local display mode. The import automatically created a folder in which the files are stored for this configuration. The default location is under <drive>:\Documents and Settings\<username>\.dtc\<development configuration name>.
