GOAL:
How to delete properties with mergeprop utilitiy
GOAL:
How to update the ubroker.properties file from the command line
GOAL:
How to delete ubroker.properties group entries from the command line
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.1x
All Supported Operating Systems
FIX:
The mergeprop utility allows the content of OpenEdge property files to be managed from the command line interface. A single property within a group cannot be deleted explicitly, only group-level deletions can be performed.
EXAMPLE: to delete one or more of the properties of asbroker2, perhaps because they are now being assigned at a higher level
proenv> mergeprop -type ubroker -action list UBroker.AS.asbroker2 -target $DLC\properties\ubroker.properties > changeasbroker2
proenv> mergeprop -type ubroker -action delete ubroker.AS.asbroker2 -delta changeasbroker2 -target $DLC\properties\ubroker.properties
Edit the changeasbroker2 delta file to remove properties and then re-add the group back into the properties file:
proenv> mergeprop -type ubroker -action update -delta changeasbroker2 -target $DLC\properties\ubroker.properties
Verify the new properties by reviewing the output, specifically lines with "VALIDATION MESSAGE:"
proenv> ubconfig -f $DLC\properties\ubroker.properties > verifubprop
NOTE: -target $DLC\properties\ubroker.properties is not entirely necessary in the above example, as this is the default location for .properties files.
