Mainframe in the Eclipse IDE
- Port not saved after restarting Eclipse
- Sometimes, after the first connection definition, the port you use to connect to the Mainframe is not saved. To work around this issue:
- After you have defined your mainframe connection, explicitly connect and disconnect from the Mainframe.
- After the first restart of Eclipse, ensure that the port is correct.

- If this does not solve the problem, restart Eclipse.
