OS.app System Configuration

Each application created with the OSbee Software Factory V4.5.5 and later contains the system configuration to manage system wide settings.

The system configuration has two parts:

  • Configuration group
  • Configuration

The configuration entries belong to a configuration group to bundle related configuration entries.

Configuration entries and groups show up during operation of the application, as soon as the entry is requested by the application. The default value is used as the initial value. As soon as the configuration entry is available, it can be adjusted to the local needs.

Deleting an entry will result in the recreation of the default value, as soon as the application requests the value.

Configuration values will be introduced without seperate notice. The description might contain values, that are not yet available in the OS.app you're using, depending on the version of the software factory used to build the applicatoin.


Configuration Attributes

There are various attributes used for the configuration. All entries have

basic attributes
Attribute Type
configuration group Reference to the Configuration group
key String
description String

The follwing types extend this basic attribute set. It can be a simple or a complex type

Boolean

a simple yes/no value, selected means yes / true, deselected means no / false

Integer

a simple number with precision 0 eg. 5000

Float

a simple number with precision > 0 eg. 1.234

String

a simple text value. Whatever shall be configured as text

Textblock

a simple text block value. Whatever shall be configured as a larger amount of text. Can be formatted.

Datainterchange

a complex type to configure datainterchange parameters for import and export

Datainterchange configuration attributes
Attribute Type
protocol directory String, the directory, where the import log is stored.
empty disables the logging, Default: empty
import blocksize Integer, Default 5000
no superindex creation Boolean, Default yes
export blocksize Integer, Default 1000

Notification Template

a complex type to configure user email notifications

Notification Template Attributes
Attribute Type
locale The language, the template is valid for
subject String, used as email subject
body String, used as email body

DATAINTERCHANGE

Controls the datainterchange settings

For each datainterchange, the settings for the import and export can be configured

no superindex creation Do not update the superindex during import.
 Boolean true true
false
import blocksize the number of records, that are imported in one block.
The larger the blocksize, the more memory is needed. 		Integer 5000 0 = no block defined
export blocksize the number of records, that are exported in one block / file. Integer 1000 0 = no block defined

POSPrinterLogo a bitmap that can be used on POSPrinters Blob empty (*)


(*) The POSPrinterLogo is created and used as soon as the slip print parameters setting 'logo' contains the String 'POSPrinterLogo'. We recommend to use a black/white or grayscale jpg logo with a resolution of 200x80 pixel. Other formats and sizes may work, but may lead to unexpected results. Please consult the printer documentation for further information. It is possible to use different POSPrinterLogos by using multiple keywords for different logo configurations starting with POSPrinterLogo, e.g POSPrinterLogo1, POSPrinterLogo2, POSPrinterLogoChristmas, POSPrinterLogoEaster.

PrintServices

Controls the use of the system print service in the printservice selection comboboxes The key contains the name of the print service.

Printservice examples

new entries will always be enabled by default.

Reports

Controls the replacement of reports. There are two methods: either the alternate report is part of the application, the the path is similar to the original path and has to be asked from the developer or the rptdesign file is located in the filesystem. Then, the prefix file: has to be used and the location can bei either relative or absolute. The relative location has to start with "file:", the absolute location has to start with "file:////" followed by the path to the rptdesign file.

The original report is used if the alternate report can not be found. The log contains hints about the search and the problem.

Reports examples
Key Description Type Default Possible Values
replacement for org/eclipse/osbp/stubapplication/model/reports/rV1 alternate report String org/eclipse/osbp/stubapplication/model/reports/rV2.rptdesign the path to the alternate report. Default is the path to the original report
replacement for org/eclipse/osbp/stubapplication/model/reports/rV1 alternate report on the filesystem String file:myreports/rV2.rptdesign the path to the alternate report, located relative to the configuration directory, that contains the application preferences file.
replacement for org/eclipse/osbp/stubapplication/model/reports/rV1 alternate report on the filesystem String file:////c:\myreports\rV2.rptdesign the absolute path to the alternate report.
