To configure a shared AVM:

The shared AVM starts if there is a project associated with it.

  1. Select Window > Preferences from the main menu bar of Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge.
  2. Open Progress OpenEdge > Shared OpenEdge AVM in the tree view of the Preferences dialog.
  3. Set the AVM startup parameters on the Shared OpenEdge AVM preference page.
  4. In the child nodes of the Shared OpenEdge AVM page, you can set the other properties (AppBuilder, Assemblies, Database connection, and PROPATH) that affect all the projects that use the shared AVM. In addition, you can choose which projects use the shared AVM.
