Working with VMware Virtual Machines

Zend Studio allows you to integrate with a local VMware Workstation so that you can easily execute your project on a virtual machine. Working with a virtual machine allows you to develop your code on one operating system and execute it on a different one, all while working on one machine.

Working with VMware Virtual Machines allows you to:

Manage Virtual Machine Connections - Add and delete virtual machine connections for run and debug purposes.
Define a VMware Run/Debug Configuration - Define a VMware run/debug configuration, which allows you to work with multiple virtual machines.
Work with Multiple Virtual Machines - Choose a virtual machine to use for run/debug purposes when you have more than one virtual machine defined in your Zend Studio.
Debug a PHP Application on a Virtual Machine - Debug your PHP application on a VMware virtual machine.
Run a PHP Application on a Virtual Machine - Run your PHP application on a VMware virtual machine.
