Working Environments Tree
For a description of abbreviations and typeface, please see Quick Reference.
The Working Environments Tree shows your development team's working environments. These can be displayed in a hierarchical tree or in alphabetical order, and filtered according to type and ownership.
Each node of the tree refers to one working environment. For example, the node
RWE: Filebrowser Example
refers to an RWE (Repository). The name of this working environment is Filebrowser Example.
The working environment currently selected in the Working EnvironmentsTree is the current working environment. All shared projects are opened in the current working environment.
If no working environment is selected, projects are opened in the default working environment, which is indicated by an asterisk (*) to the left of its name. The menu command Edit > Set Default sets the default working environment in the Preferences for you.
Each PWE has an owner. By default, all newly set up PWEs are assigned an owner with the log-in name of whoever set them up. This can be changed as described under Users dialog. If no owner is assigned (i.e. deleted in the Users dialog), PWEs are assigned to a default user named
adm .
For example, the node:
* harry PWE:MyPlace
would refer to the PWE (Private Working Environment) named MyPlace , which is owned by the user harry . You can specify the owner of a PWE with the Edit > Modify... menu command. Being the owner of a PWE allows you to filter for your own PWE(s) and the shared environments accessed by your PWE(s). Once you have identified yourself in the Users Dialog, only you and users with administration permissions (i.e. permissions to create/modify hierarchically higher, shared working environments) can modify a PWE owned by you. See also Users dialog PWEs that you own, or that are owned by adm (nobody), are also shown in the Working Environments tab of the Launch Pad.
