Entry Fields

The entry fields below the toolbar that allow you to enter Host, Path, Profile, and Extension information are as follows:

Host

The network name for the computer you are using. The list contains one local host and can contain multiple remote hosts. These names are stored in the configuration properties file. As you connect to more Hosts, their names also appear below the Path drop-down list. You can switch from Host to Host by clicking a host name or selecting the name from the Host drop-down list. This field accepts both IPv4 and IPv6 hostnames.

Path

A fully qualified directory name. The current path is displayed and up to ten previous paths can be stored. The last path that is used is saved in the configuration properties file for use at the next Build Tool startup.

Profile

A default profile and all user profiles are kept in the configuration properties file. Profiles provide a means of storing a set of customizable parameters that govern building of generated applications

Extension

Refers to the three-character suffix at the end of a file name. By setting the Extension, you see only the files you want-ICM or RMT or both.
