Configuring Enterprise Developer for Enterprise Sync

The following must be configured before continuing this procedure:
Enterprise Sync
Installation must be complete and configured successfully for the synchronization process. All required initial syncs running successfully. See Configuring Sync Rules.
Enterprise Developer 2.3 Update 1 HotFix 1 installed.
An Enterprise Developer for z Systems license or an Enterprise Developer Connect license is required (see Enterprise Developer 2.3 Update 1 for Eclipse product documentation for details how to install and to configure this product).

AccuRev Eclipse Plugin installed into Enterprise Developer
Use the installation process via an Eclipse Update Site: In Enterprise Developer select Help > Install New Software and follow the installation steps described in AccuRev Plug-In for Eclipse -Installation and Release Notes - Version 2015.1.
Workflow Manager (AWM) Endevor Attachment
Must be installed and configured. See Installing the Endevor Model.
  1. Start Enterprise Developer and open the Team Developer Perspective and load the application Enterprise Sync V2.0 Endevor Application in the Team Developer tree. If this application is not visible make sure that the Workflow Manager Endevor Attachment has been fully installed and configured.
  2. Click File > Import. Select AccuRev and then Project from AccuRev.
  3. Select the correct AccuRev server and add your login credentials and then click OK.
  4. Select the stream for which you would like to create a new AccuRev workspace. For our BANKDEMO sample we will select stream TEST.
  5. Enter an appropriate Workspace name and location and then click Next.
  6. Select the Check out a project using the new project wizard option. Enter a project name and click Next.
  7. Select General > Project, then click Next and then Finish. This creates the Eclipse project with the AccuRev workspace entries
  8. You can now directly access the AccuRev workspace and the AccuRev team actions from the Team Developer tree. Expand the loaded application, then expand the entry Workspace, navigate to one of the sources and find all relevant AccuRev actions on the Team context menu.
  9. To test the Endevor mainframe access expand the Endevor entry on the loaded application a few times until your subsystem is listed under stage PROD. Then select Show all elements from the context menu of the subsystem.
  10. The Endevor element list is opened in the Team Developer Table view and the context menu of an Endevor element supports the corresponding Endevor actions.
  11. To test the integration with Enterprise Developer projects we define a new Mainframe COBOL Project named BANKDEMO with an empty COBOL folder. Selecting the COPY folder in the AccuRev workspace and selecting the BANKDEMO project via New > Folder > Link Folder to Project creates a link of the AccuRev folder into the ED project. Same could be done with other folders, but we could also decide to link files explicitly to an ED project using New > File > Link File to Folder.
  12. After setting the Enterprise Developer projects properties correctly (build path and directives) the programs are compiled successfully and the COBOL editor supports full smart edit capabilities.
