accessing local c:\ - need help

Hello,

I will start off with I am new to Thinapp and vmware so any help I can get is great. At the moment, I am the only one at my company that is doing this so I do not have any resources to go to. I made a thin app of Sap Netweaver developer. It runs very slow in thinapp. What we would like to try is to run the application via thinapp but have the working directory on the local host/drive - non virtual. The icon path is below and what I need to dois have the workspace and the dtr directory point to the local pc c:\ and not he virtualized. Help..is this possible? If so, what variables can I use so it goes to c:\users\userid\sap..etc. This is actually an xp thinapp application that is going to run on a win7 machine. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Gayla

XP icon path that needs to be redirected:

"C:\Program Files\SAP\IDESP06\IDE70\eclipse\SapIde.exe" -vm "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_22\bin\javaw.exe" -data "%USERPROFILE%\SAP\7.01.06\workspace" -dvfs.configfolder="%USERPROFILE%\SAP\7.01.06\dtr"

Hello,

as i understand the Woking dir is compiled in your App and you want the App look at the lokal Computer and not in the VMWare Package is that right?

If its so you have to set the Isolation Mode of the Dieroctory in the Package to Merged. So the Pakage can look in this directory an write changes to it.

User profile is represented by Macro called %Profile%.

In your project directory look for directory called %Profile%. If it exists just delete it and application will look in native profile path not into virtual-FS.

Or you can leave directory %Profile% and check isolation mode in its file ##Attributes.ini. Change isolation mode in this file into Merged.

***Good question is half of the answer...***
