Get existing project on VMS under IDE

Post by willemgrooters » Fri Jul 12, 2019 2:14 pm

I like the IDE environment for my project - which is already set up completely on the VMS box. How do I import that whole structure and all files into the IDE, without having to setup the environment within the IDE beforehand?

That depends on what you mean by 'setting up the environment within the IDE'.

In order to synchronize your project with VMS IDE, you have to setup the IDE SSH connection to yout system (https://wiki.vmssoftware.com/SSH_Settings), then configure the projects settings (https://wiki.vmssoftware.com/Project_Settings), set up the synchronization configuration (https://wiki.vmssoftware.com/Synchronize_Configuration), and then synchronize your project.

We could help you if you provide some more information on your project setup, namely: are your project files located in a single root directory or are they scattered around the volume? When the project is compiled, is it written to a separate directory or the system directories? How is it compiled: MMS, COM or a few processes run manually?
No good deed goes unpunished, no act of charity goes unresented.
