When CICS Explorer® first starts, all functional components are available
to use by default. However, you can use the Eclipse Capabilities function
to disable or enable components, and so limit the function available
to use.
CICS
Explorer has two capabilities that are defined: CICS® Application Development, and CICS System Administration. Each capability
enables or disables the function that a typical user would use. For
example, a CICS Application
Developer would probably not use the Administration views. So by clearing
the CICS System Administration
capability, the Administration functions and views are disabled.
About this task
Use the
Preferences Capabilities window
to disable or enable the capabilities:
Procedure
- Click Window > Preferences on the CICS Explorer menu bar
to open the Preferences window.
- Expand General in the contents pane
and click Capabilities.
- Select, or clear, the capability you want to enable or
disable and click OK to save your changes and
close the window.
Results
The views and functions that are available depend on the capabilities
you selected.
