Updating and installing software

You can use the facilities provided by the Eclipse platform to update your CICS Explorer™ software or add new software plug-ins, such as CICS® tools.

The update site for the CICS Explorer is already coded in the product. You can see the site address on the Installed Software page in the Software Updates dialog.

Before you can install new software, CICS Explorer has to know the address of the update site, either on your local machine or a remote location, where the software can be found. You can add multiple update sites each containing one or more software downloads.
