The following fields apply to a GDC configuration:

Host: Hostname or IP address where the GDC client executes. In local host mode, when the host field is empty, the client IP address will be automatically detected in order that GDC will always be accessible from fglrun. You can change this manually.
Port: Port from which GDC client is to be launched.
Use autostart script: Check this option to have Genero Studio automatically start the GDC.; Uncheck this option if you want to manually start the GDC.
Script path: Path to where GDC client is installed.
Script options: Command line options for the execution of Genero Desktop Client (GDC). For a full list of valid command line options, see the Genero Desktop Client User Guide.
