Yes. The demo program that we beg everyone to do first shows exactly how to set this up and create a default workspace. There’s one for Unix and one for Windows. However, since you asked so nicely, here’s what you do: • Start the RC GUI. • Turn RC on by clicking the checkbox at top (Windows) or Enter rootcause on in a window where you’ll start your app. • Run your Java program as you normally do. • Examine the RC log (File->Open RootCause Log). • Search near the bottom and find you Java program APP_START node. If you see two identical ones, choose the second. • Click on it. • Right-click to get context menu. • Choose Open Associated Workspace. • New Workspace Dialog should appear with information filled in so you just click OK.
