The steps to install and configure Developer Studio
vary depending on how you plan to develop applications.
xInstallation and Configuration Steps
Perform the following steps to install and configure
Developer Studio:
- Ensure all requirements
are met (see Installing Developer Studio).
- Run the Developer
Studio installation (see Installing Developer Studio).
- Ensure a web
or application server is configured either locally or remote.
- For local processing,
verify the automatic web or application server configuration (see Installing Developer Studio) or manually configure a web or application
server (see Configuring the Web Server or Application Server).
- For remote processing
or network installations, ensure a WebFOCUS environment has been
configured somewhere on your network. See the WebFOCUS and
ReportCaster Installation and Configuration manual for your
platform to install WebFOCUS.
- Start Developer
Studio.
- Set up a connection
to a WebFOCUS environment.
- For local processing
and installation on a WebFOCUS machine, this should occur automatically
if the web server is configured. In some environments, you may need
to specify the web server port to set up the connection. You can
also create connections to additional WebFOCUS environments running
on your network.
- For remote processing
or network installations, set up connections to WebFOCUS environments
and specify the default environment to use for development.
- Configure data
adapters and metadata to report on your data through the WebFOCUS
Reporting Server (see the Developer Studio Application Development Getting
Started manual). For remote processing and network installations,
you use the adapters and metadata of the remote environment.
- For network
installations, configure access from developer desktops to the shared machine
where you installed Developer Studio (see Configuring a Network Installation).
