Creating a Group

A group consists of a group name and a directory in which external application configuration files can be placed.

When a front-end starts an application whose configuration information is in an external application configuration file, it must provide the group name to direct the GAS to the directory where the file resides, and the application name to identify which file to read. A group is specified in the SERVICE_LIST component of the Genero Application Server configuration file.

Syntax

<GROUP Id="groupId">path</GROUP>

groupId is the alias
path is the physical path to the directory

Example

<GROUP Id="demo">$(res.path.fgldir.demo.services)</GROUP>
