Open IDE in a selected workspace

[controlhorus]

Hello

I had a CodeWarrior for ColdFire installed. Now I must work with MPC5567, so I installed Codewarrior for MPC55xx.  Now I have two CodeWarriors installed

I followed this instructions to start one or another.

http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.faqs/ka3561.html

At Preferences I have Do nothing at start up. But it will be more comfortable if I could add a kind of '-w workspaceA ' to open each IDE in their respective workspaces . I can not find anything similar. Any idea?

Thank you

Hello

It is possible to use two instances of CodeWarrior on the same machine.

I assume CodeWarrior is installed on your local machine and you are the only person logging in on your Host PC. Am I right?

If this is the case proceed as follows:

  1- Open a Widows Explorer

  2- Browse to your %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data directory.

       To Check where your USERPROFILE directory is located

           - Open a DOS command window

           - Enter set USERPROFILE

  3- Delete the Metrowerks directory.

  4- Start your First CodeWarrior (CodeWarrior for Coldfire for example).

  5- Open a project

  6- In the IDE Preferences,  Activate "Restore Default Workspace" on IDE Start in the IDE Startup panel.

  7- Build the project

  8- Close the IDE

  9- Move following files from the %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Metrowerks directory to

      the CodeWarrior's installation \bin directory

         - "CodeWarrior IDE 5.? Prefs"

         - default.cww

         - Remote_Connections.xml

         - BreakpointTemplates.xml

  10- Repeat steps 3 to 9 for the other CodeWarrior you have installed (CodeWarrior for PA55xx).

Hi crasycat

Sorry. I can not test yet.  I just reinstalled Windows. TomorrowI will reinstall the two CodeWarriors and test that.

Many thanks,

Jose
