Connecting to DTP Server is required for licensing, as well as extending other team-working capabilities, such as:

The connection must be configured in the .properties configuration file in the INSTALL_DIR (or another location; see Configuration Overview for details).

The following properties must be set to configure the connection to DTP Server:

  • dtp.server=[SERVER]
  • dtp.port=[PORT] 
  • dtp.user=[USER]
  • dtp.password=[PASSWORD]

Use only alphanumeric characters and hyphens for passwords. Special characters are allowed only in encoded passwords (see Creating an Encoded Password).

Creating an Encoded Password

C++test can encrypt your password, which adds a layer of security to your interactions with DTP Server. Run the following command to print an encoded password:  

-encodepass [MYPASSWORD]

Copy the encoded password that is returned and paste it into the cpptest.properties file:

dtp.password=[ENCODED PASSWORD]
