Setting Configuration Parameters
The configuration file e3config.xml contains parameter definitions used as configuration settings for Arbortext Publishing Engine. The default values are adequate for most sites to begin development and testing. As you build your Arbortext Publishing Engine production system, you'll need to review and possibly enable or change parameter or attribute values in this file.
The
Arbortext Publishing Engine Java, JavaScript, VBScript, and ACL sample programs retrieve the
Arbortext Publishing Engine configuration parameters and values through the
Arbortext Publishing Engine HTML index page. These sample programs are explained in
Monitoring and Reporting Using a Web Browser.
You can also retrieve these configuration parameters from your custom applications:
• For Java or JavaScript applications, call the E3ApplicationConfig interface.
• For VBScript or ACL applications, call the PEAppConfig package.
Consult the Programmer's Guide to Arbortext Publishing Engine for information on using the Arbortext Publishing Engine interfaces and packages when writing custom applications.
To become more familiar with the specific parameters and attributes used in this file, refer to the remaining sections in this chapter. After you've reviewed their explanations, you can proceed to edit the file to make changes appropriate for your site.
