environment. This requires extensive knowledge of your development
environment and the product. This also requires some knowledge of the
scripting language Perl.

The TDP Editor provides a user interface designed to help you customize and create
unified Target Deployment Ports (TDP).

Target Deployment Port Editor, for information about customizing Target
Deployment Ports and using the editor.

Updating a Target Deployment Port
The Target Deployment Port (TDP) settings are read or loaded when a Test RealTime

account until the TDP has been reloaded in the project.
