Updating Events Definition File
Events definition files are used to specify which scripts to run for a particular event or events. The events definition file essentially attaches the script to the event. The file follows the format of a Java properties file and includes configuration keys to indicate the context of the events, as well as a key for each event addressed by the specified context:
• In the global context, the required configuration key is:
event.context=global
where the event context is defined as global.
• In the configuration management project context, the required configuration keys are:
event.context=project
event.projectPath=<dir>/project.pj
event.projectPath=<dir>/project.pj
where the event context is project and the path to the specific project is also defined.
Use forward slashes (/)when specifying a project path.
• For both global and project contexts, the event key is a comma-delimited list of scripts for each event addressed by the specified context. The syntax is:
context.operation.pre/post=event.js,event.js
where
◦ context is archive, member, project, revision, or server
◦ operation is the actual configuration management operation, for example, checkIn, checkOut, setAttribute, or checkpoint
◦ pre/post indicates whether the script is run before or after the event
An example of a completed event key is:
Member.thaw.pre=projectEvent.js,ethawTest.js

You cannot use configuration management events NewProject and DropProject in the project context.
