GOAL:
How to use a .ini file to deploy an application.
GOAL:
How to override the registry definition when starting Progress
GOAL:
How to override the registry definition when starting OpenEdge
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows 32 Intel
FIX:
In order to standardize settings for all different clients there are three options to do this.
1) Creating an .ini file and use the startup parameters like this:
-ininame <ininame file> -basekey "INI"
Example
-ininame c:\Progress\Wrk\sales.ini -basekey "INI"
The parameter -ininame will establish an alternative to the registry. The -basekey "INI" will force to take the sales.ini file instead of the registry.
2) Using the %DLC%\bin\ini2reg utility to convert the created .ini file to the registry.
3) Modify the registry with Regedit for every client PC (not recommended).
