The projects, folders and files that exist in the workbench are called resources. They are collectively referred to as the workspace and they reside in your local file system.
By default, resources reside (with their metadata) in the workspace directory. The workspace directory is created the first time that you start the Message Brokers Toolkit. On Windows, the default workspace directory is created at C:\Documents and Settings\user\IBM\wmbt6.0\workspace, and on Linux, the default workspace directory is created at /home/user/IBM/wmqi6.0/workspace, where user is the user name with which you are logged on. You can create projects in other directories as well as in the workspace directory. You can maintain multiple workspaces by specifying a new location when prompted while the Message Brokers Toolkit is starting.
Typically, you open and view for editing any workbench resource in the Resource Navigator view. The exception is a broker domain resource (also referred to as a domain object) which you view and open for editing in the Broker Administration Navigator view in the Broker Administration perspective.
The following figure shows a server project, a message flow project, and a message set project in the Resource Navigator view of the Broker Application Development perspective.
A project is either open or closed. You can view and modify an open project in the workbench. You cannot view or modify a closed project. The files and folders of a closed project are not displayed in the workbench, but they still reside on the local file system.
A closed project requires less memory than an open project.
Project types are listed in Resource types in the Message Brokers Toolkit.
