Using the Workspace tab page

The Workspace tab page in the System Tree displays the current workspace and all its targets. PowerScript targets display the library list for the target and all the objects in each PBL. Web targets display the contents of the root folder of  the Web target. The Workspace tab page in the System Tree works like a tree view in the Library painter, but you can keep it open all the time to serve as the control center of the development environment. As in the Library painter, you can set the root of the Workspace page to your computer’s root directory, the current selection, or any directory or library, as well as to the current workspace.

One of the PowerScript targets, client, has a second library, emusic_data.pbl, in its library search path. You can use the Workspace page as the hub of your PowerBuilder session. Pop-up menus let you build and deploy targets and open and edit any object. The following table lists the actions you can take on each item that displays on the Workspace page. You can also set properties for each item, choose which object types display in the tree view, change the root of the Workspace page, and reset the root to the current workspace.
