Set Option: Model object attribute
Changes the default template defining the non-project-specific directory of your work area path. Setting this option affects the work area path for projects created after the setting has been saved; it does not change the work area path of existing projects.
When changing the value of this option from the command line, you set the wa_path_template variable. This automatically sets the option for the given platform where your interface is running - either UNIX or Windows. The setting is persistent and applies to all sessions on all clients for the given user in the given database.
When changing the model-wide default setting, you need to append _unix or _windows to the name of the attribute, to indicate whether the template applies to Windows or UNIX work areas. For example, to set a model-wide template for UNIX work areas, you would create an attribute called wa_path_template_unix.
Set this path using the ccm set command.
ccm set wa_path_template %home\%database\location
%database replaces %database with the new database name.
%user replaces %user with your user name.
%owner replaces %owner with the name of the project owner.
%home replaces %home with your home directory.
The Windows default is %home\ccm_wa\%database, where %home is your home directory (wherever you designated that to be in the Startup dialog's Home Directory text box).
The UNIX default is %home/ccm_wa/%database, where. %home is your UNIX home directory.
This option is available in the Options dialog box as Set default path for all work areas. This setting is also persistent and applies to all sessions on all clients for the given user in the given database.
If you need to change the project-specific portion of the work area path, see project_subdir_template.
