Workbench

The Message Brokers Toolkit integrated development environment provides your application development and administration workbench on Windows® and Linux® on x86.

Within the workbench, you can access resources through several perspectives, and create and modify them using the supplied editors:

For information about how to use the keyboard in the workbench, see Keyboard shortcuts.

When you create resources in the workbench, or import resources into the workbench, be aware of the file system limit of 256 characters that is imposed by the Windows file system. This limit can cause restrictions in path specifications to resources (for example, message flow projects), and might cause access problems if the combination of path and resource name exceeds this limit. Keep installation locations and resource names short to avoid problems associated with this restriction.

Resource editors do not automatically reflect the changes that you make in one window in additional windows that you have opened to view the same resource. Close and reopen additional windows each time you update a resource in an editor session.

A minimum display resolution of at least 1024 x 768 is required for some dialogs; for example, the Preferences dialog.
