Both
the applet and servlet can be set to retrieve the configuration
properties from a data file. The configuration file
is simply a list of the property names with the value
for each property.
The first element of a line specifies the property name whilst the second
represents the value for that property.
Any
line in the file which is either blank or begins with
<!-- will be ignored. Therefore comment lines may
be added to file by beginning the line with <!--.
We
recommend that, rather than building a configuration
from scratch, that you take a copy of the example file
lineprops.txt
file and modify the values to suite your implementation.
With both the applet and servlet the configuration file is specified via a
URL parameter and therefore the file can be placed in any directory accessible via a URL.
For
a full explanation of each property and range of valid
values please see the
Parameters & Option section.
