REFERENCE TOPIC:
Properties tab
Enter a name for the new project. It will be used as the filename when Together creates a project file in the operating system. (Note: project file has a .tpr extension).
A read-only field that displays the full path specification for the location where Together will create the new project file and related properties files. The path specified here is the project root directory.
Displayed only in New Project dialog. Pick the type of diagram you want to create in the project root directory when the new the project is created.
Default value is Class (diagram). For free or feature-limited editions, Class is the only diagram type that will work. You can specify none (i.e. don't create any diagram initially).
Pick the default target programming language for round-trip engineering of this project. For single-language products, only one choice is available.
Components
Check this box to include Coad Components into the project. Fully qualified path to the Coad Components appears in the Search/Classpath tab of the Resources pane.
Advanced mode displays project resources and enables you to add or delete resources, control reading and writing of resources, and specify a version control system project for the Together project. The dialog displays in this mode when called from File | Project Properties.
Displays all the resources that pertain to the project. These may be either directories or archives containing classes or source files. The resources listed display in the Model Tab of the Explorer and are round-trip engineered according to your specifications on the other controls at right. The default settings initially apply to all resources in the list. You can select individual resources and modify the settings of the other controls.
Specify which types of files are writable in the selected resource path or archive. The options vary according to the language support of the product you have. For example, a Java-only product shows Java file options but not C++ file options.
Specify a value to be substituted for the full resource path in package statements.
These controls are disabled unless you have enabled version control system support in Options | Default (or Project) | Version Control.
If version control is enabled, check this box to associate the new or current project with a project in your version control system (VCS). Clicking the Select button activates your VCS client and enables you to select an existing VCS project. Together's version control mechanisms will interact with this VCS project when the new or current Together project is open.
Select this option if you want Together to treat the selected resource directory or archive as read-only. When selected, the File Types list is disabled.
Select this option if you want Together to ignore this resource when parsing the project structures. The resource is still a part of the project and is included in generated documentation.
Resource directories and archives in this list do not "belong" to the project and are not shown in the Model tab of the Explorer. They are logically linked to the project, and you can include their contents in diagrams using the Add Shortcut command of diagram speedmenus. In diagrams, Classes from these resources display a "shortcut" symbol on one corner. Logically linked resources cannot be modified from Together, and are not included in generated documentation. If you want such resources included, you must remove them from this list and add them to the Project Paths list.
By default the list contains the component directory of your Together installation and standard classes on the Classpath (if these are found in the environment).
Check this option to include the full Classpath in the list of logically linked resources available on search paths.
Check this option to include only standard classes from the Classpath in the list of logically linked resources available on search paths.
Path to folder which contains documentation
Use this text area and file chooser button to specify location of the project documentation folder.
Application server
This selection in the Application Server list represents the default target app server platform for Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) in the project. When you create EJBs, any server-specific elements for the classes/interfaces are included in the generated code. The EJB Specification version supported for the selected application server platform displays in the read-only field to the right.
If the project will not include EJBs, you can simply accept the default Generic 1.1. For a project that does include EJBs, you can optionally select an application server from the drop down list. Note that your selection here does not prevent you from deploying EJBs on another app server: the EJB Deployment Expert enables you to deploy to any supported server platform.
These buttons operate on the list of resources in both tabs of the Resources section of the dialog. They are accessible in the Advanced mode only.
Add Path: Add a directory to the project. Select directory from standard OS file selection dialog.
Add Zip/JAR: Add an archive as a resource for the project. Select archive file from standard OS file selection dialog.
Remove: Remove the selected resource from the project.
OK: creates a new Together project in the location specified and opens the default diagram in the Diagram pane.
Advanced: toggles display of the Resources section of the dialog
