Concepts

This chapter explains some concepts of the JCOP Tools.

Perspectives

The JCOP Tools add several new Perspectives to the Eclipse environment that can be used for the development of JavaCard applications. A perspective defines the initial set and layout of views in the Workbench window. One or more perspectives can exist in a single Workbench window.

To switch to a JCOP Tools Perspective, you can choose a perspective from the Window->Open Perspective menu. Choose Other from the menu to select the JCOP perspectives.

Views

The JCOP Views can be used for the different tasks during the development process. A view is a visual component within the Workbench. Modifications made in a view are saved immediately. Normally, only one instance of a particular type of view may exist within a Workbench window.

Preferences

The Preferences settings can be used to set some aspects of the appearance and behavior to suit your individual needs.
