Enhancements for the TPF Toolkit services web application
The Java runtime that is used to run the TPF Toolkit services web application is changed to IBM Semeru Runtime Certified Edition 11.
Logging is improved with additional diagnostic messages to help you determine problems more easily.
Deleting and renaming a synchronized project
The behaviors for deleting and renaming a synchronized project are enhanced.
In TPF Toolkit, when you delete a project that is in sync with a remote system, you can select or clear the Delete project contents on disk (cannot be undone) checkbox in the Delete Resources window to control whether to delete the project resources on the remote system.
When you rename a project that is in sync with a remote system, the working directory in the C/C++ build configurations for the project is updated if the project name was used to resolve the working directory on the remote system. Additionally, if local C/C++ index files exist in the workspace, the files are deleted and retrieved again by using the new project name, and the index is rebuilt.
To view a list of behaviors when you delete or rename a synchronized project, you can click Preview in the Delete Resources or Rename Resources window.
Removal of the Web Application preference page
The Web Application preference page was removed. The TPFT3657E message, which was associated with the preference page, was also removed.
Secure z/TPF connections
With APAR PJ46830 applied to your z/TPF system, you can securely connect to the z/TPF system in the Remote Systems view by using an SSH type connection. To use an SSH type connection, a public key and a private key must be specified in the SSH2 preference page. To open the SSH2 preference page, click .
Support for asterisks in workstation IP addresses for debug sessions
When you are configuring the workstation IP address to be used in debug sessions, you can use asterisks in any octet. For example, you can specify 9.*.*.* in the Workstation Address field in the TPF Debug preference page or in a debug session creation wizard. By using asterisks, TPF Toolkit can choose the correct local workstation IP address to use during the registration of a debug session on the z/TPF system. If the Automatically update workstation IP address checkbox is selected in the TPF Debug preference page, TPF Toolkit can choose the correct local workstation IP address if your local workstation IP address changes during a debug session.
