Invoking Symantec Visual Café Applications from IDE

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Classic Agent.

Before you invoke Visual Café applications from the Integrated Development Environment (IDE), you must first add the Java support path to the CLASSPATH by editing the sc.ini file.

To invoke Visual Café applications from the IDE:
  1. Make sure Silk Test Classic is configured to test Java.
  2. Open the sc.ini file in your favorite text editor. The file is located in <Visual Café install directory>\bin\sc.ini.
  3. On the line that begins with CLASSPATH=, add the Java support path. For example if you have installed Silk Test Classic in c:\Silk and you are using Visual Café 2.0 as your Java Virtual Machine (JVM), add the following Java support path to the end of the CLASSPATH:
    ;c:\Silk\SilkTest_Java3.jar
    For additional information, refer to the VisualCafe documentation.
  4. Save and close sc.ini.
  5. Restart Visual Café.
  6. Click Project > Execute to invoke your application within the IDE.
