Before you can run web transactions in EGL, you must modify
at least one configuration file.
The gw.properties file in the JavaResources:
src folder contains basic configuration information for your
web transaction application. By default, the file names csogw.properties as
the hptLinkageProperties file, which resolves
locations for your application.
You will have to edit the
csogw.properties file
(or whatever file you use to specify your linkage) before your programs
will run properly. The following instructions cover the simplest case;
for more complex cases, and for more information, see "Web transaction
linkage properties" in the
EGL Generation Guide.
- You can configure the file to look for your web transaction programs
in different locations depending on the file name. In this example,
assume all your files are located in a single local directory. The
asterisk in the following line is a wildcard that represents any character
or string of characters:
application.*=allfiles
- You have now associated the name allfiles with
any application EGL is looking for. Tell EGL that the files are local
with the following line:
serverLinkage.allfiles.commtype=DIRECT
- Assign a folder (relative to the current JavaResources:
src folder) where your generated programs reside (shown as fileLocation in
the following line):
serverLinkage.allfiles.javaProperty=fileLocation
These three lines provide the minimum configuration information
for EGLWebStartup.jsp to work properly.
