This tutorial demonstrates how to define a target platform based on the Agent.Workbench Software-Repository.

In your Eclipse IDE, go to Window > Preferences. In the top left corner, type "target" to the search field and choose Target Platform from the explorer on the left. In the Target Platform window click Add.

Choose Nothing: Start with an empty target definition. Then click Next.

Name your target platform (e.g "AWB-Software-Repository"). Add a location for the target definition by clicking Add.

In our case, the location for the Agent.Workbench library is a remote software-repository. Select Software Site and click Next.

If not already in the list of the 'Work with:' combo box in the next dialog, Add a new repository to the known repositories. Give the repository a name (e.g. Enflex.IT Update Site - see below). The location for the software repository is: https://p2.enflex.it/awb/latest/ Finally click Add.

On the next page, we need to select at least the group called Agent.Workbench. Beside, and depending on your development tasks, you are free to select further features from the repository. Then click Finish.

To complete the process to define your target platform, click Finish.

In the Preference window, select Apply and Close.

We now successfully defined a target platform based on the AWB Software-Repository. With this target platform, we can now start Agent.Workbench from the Eclipse IDE. A tutorial on how to do this can be found .
