Additional details for Java-related environment variables
The JavaTools.properties file is a common text file that contains configuration
information for all ABL clients. The JavaTools.properties file is located in the
OpenEdge-instal-dir/properties/directory. The configuration information and
settings defined in the JavaTools.properties file provide more information than the
Java-related environment variables.
The AdminServer plugins.properties file, a common text file that contains
configuration details for all OpenEdge databases, is another valuable resource with
which you should be familiar. It contains information for plug-ins that can be loaded and
managed by the AdminServer. The AdminServer plugins.properties file is also
located in the $DLC/properties/ directory. For more information about these files,
see Chapter 10, “Configuration.”
Caution: Do not make user-modifications to the JavaTools.properties files as these
properties support OpenEdge and Progress products only. Contact Progress
Technical Support if you want to modify these properties.
