Setting Workspace Using the – data Parameter 

 

If you wish to use a specific workspace without changing the default workspace, you can do this using the  –data argument. For this purpose, you only need to specify the respective workspace path as a value.

Proceed as follows:

...

       1.      Click the corresponding desktop shortcut using the right mouse button and subsequently choose Properties from the context menu.

       2.      Choose the Shortcut tab.

       3.      Under Target, enter the argument –data <my_workspace_location> into the command line.

 

...\SapIde.exe -data “C:\All Workspaces\MyWorkspace” ...

       4.      Choose OK to confirm.

Now, if you double-click the shortcut, you start the Developer Studio using the newly defined workspace instead of the default workspace.
