Parameter Name
|
Description
|
--add
|
Add the specified value at the end of the set of ordered values already defined in the property. Use this parameter only when the property is declared as a multi-valued property.
To determine if property is multi-valued, you can display the current set of values using the -d parameter. The output from this parameter lists the multivalue separator when the property is multi-valued.
|
-d
or
--describe
|
Lists the values that are currently set and the corresponding XCONF file where each value is set for the specified properties.
This parameter executes after all parameter setting options and the -p option have executed.
|
-F
or
--force
|
Forces the propagator to ignore its cache of XCONF-to-properties file dependencies and ignore the timestamp comparison it usually does to determine which property files need to be updated. Using this option propagates all site-specific changes to property files.
Use this parameter in place of -p if you suspect that there are problems with file timestamps or you want to switch between the -w and -u options.
|
-f
or
--forcescan
|
Forces the propagator to ignore its cache of XCONF-to-properties file dependencies. This parameter is ignored if you specify -F.
Use this option in place of -p if you suspect that the cache is out of date.
|
-h
or
--help
|
Displays the help for the xconfmanager command.
|
-i
or
--install
|
Installs a declarative XCONF file that you have created. New declarative XCONF files are used when creating additional property files. When you are adding code in which new properties can be set, you can choose to create a separate property file where the properties are stored. For details on what to put in the declarative XCONF file, see the topic Using XCONF Files.
|
-p
or
--propagate
|
Propagates all changes that have been made to XCONF files into the property files that are being used. This option always executes after any options that set properties. This execution order ensures that the newly set properties are included in the propagation.
Updated property files are accessed when the Windchill solution is restarted.
|
-r
or
--productroot
|
The root directory from which all relative paths are based for XCONF references specified in the declarations.xconf file and target file paths specified in the -t parameter.
The default root directory is the bin directory where the Windchill solution is installed.
|
--remove
|
Removes the specified value that is in the set of ordered values defined in the property. Use this option only when the property is declared as a multi-valued property.
To determine if a property is multi-valued, you can display the current set of values using the -d parameter. The output from this parameter lists the multivalue separator when the property is multi-valued.
|
--reset
|
Resets the site specific value of a property or set of properties to the declared default values.
|
-s
or
--set
|
Sets the named property to a specific value in the site.xconf file.
To set multiple properties in the same target property file, use multiple occurrences of this parameter or use the following parameter:
--setfromfile
To set multiple properties that are in different target property files, enter multiple xconfmanager commands, one for each target file.
Use this parameter in conjunction with the -t parameter.
|
--setfromfile
|
Adds the name=value pairs that are in the specified file to the end of the site.xconf file, thus setting each property named to the specified value. There is no checking done to determine if the value set is the default.
<property_file> is the file that contains a set of name=value pairs (one pair per line) that indicate the properties and values you want set in one target property file. Each pair sets a value for one property.
With this parameter, you can set multiple properties in the same target property file using one xconfmanager command. To set properties that are in different target property files, enter multiple xconfmanager commands, one for each target file.
Use this parameter in conjunction with the -t parameter.
|
-t
or
--targetfile
|
Identifies the property file in which the property value specified in the -s parameter is set or the property values specified in the following parameter are set:
--setfromfile
Use this parameter in conjunction with either the -s or the following parameter:
--setfromfile
This parameter is optional when setting common properties where the default property file to update has been declared and is available to the xconfmanager utility. For example, properties stored in wt.properties and db.properties do not require this parameter.
For other properties, you may need to specify the file path of the property file in this parameter. For example, updating properties in the federation.properties file requires that you enter this parameter using the codebase/federation.properties file path.
|
-u|w
or
--unix|win
|
Indicates the platform for which the property files are to be generated. Normally, the current platform settings determine the format of the property files.
Include this parameter when you want to generate property files for a specific platform that is not the current platform.
For UNIX platforms, specify -u or the following:
--unix
For Windows platforms, specify -w or the following:
--win
|
--undefine
|
Resets the specified properties such that their values will be null (instead of an empty string) when read through a java.util.Properties instance.
|
-v
|
Turns on verbose console output, which shows full exception stack traces.
|
-V
|
Turns on debug verbose console output. This option shows full exception stack traces and additional information.
|
--validateasdecl
|
Validates a specific file as a declarative XCONF file.
Returns a non-zero result if file cannot be validated.
|
--validatefilesasdecl
|
Validates a list of files as declarative XCONF files. The list is contained in the specified file, where each line in the file is either a full URL or relative file path to a declarative XCONF file.
Returns a non-zero result if any of the files cannot be validated.
<declar_list_file> is either a full URL or relative file path to the file containing the list of declarative XCONF files you want to validate.
|
--validatefilesassite
|
Validates a list of files as site-specific XCONF files. The list is contained in the specified file, where each line in the file is either a full URL or relative file path to a site-specific XCONF file.
Returns a non-zero result if any of the files cannot be validated.
<site_list_file> is either a full URL or relative file path to the file containing the list of site-specific XCONF files you want to validate.
|
--validateassite
|
Validates a specific file as a site-specific XCONF file.
Returns a non-zero result if file cannot be validated.
<site_xconf> is either a full URL or relative file path to the site-specific XCONF file you want to validate.
|
|
The xconfmanager executes the following parameters in the order that they are specified in the command:
-s, --reset, --add, --remove, --undefine
This means that if the same property is set in multiple parameters, the last setting is used.
