Set Up Custom Applications

Use the Application Preferences dialog box to set up custom applications in Cobra.

Note: To know which fields to use to define custom processes for a process, refer to Customization of Processes. For a description of each field on the Custom Hooks tab, refer to Custom Hooks Tab of the Application Preferences Dialog Box.

To set up custom applications:

  1. Display the Application Preferences dialog box.
  2. On the General tab, click the Custom Hooks Location field, and specify the folder where the custom applications are stored.
    Note: Custom applications are saved on the application server and not on the local machine.
  3. On the Custom Hooks tab, perform the following actions:
    1. In the left pane, select which process for which you want to set up the pre-process and post-process custom applications.
    2. Depending on the selected process, specify or select the location of the custom application.
      Note: If you enter the custom application path, make sure to include the exact path and extension.

      For example, if you are using a VFP application type, enter <Drive>:\<Path>\Test.fxp.

    3. In the Type field, select the custom application type.
      Note: Using the example in Step 3b, select Visual FoxPro Procedure.
  4. Click OK.
