Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Administration

Inside the Progress Dynamics Configuration File

When you install Progress Dynamics, it includes a default configuration file (icfconfig.xml) located in the OpenEdge_Install\src\dynamics directory.

You should never manually edit the configuration file. You should only use the Administration window tools to generate and edit it. If you do manually edit the file, you could introduce errors and cause problems when you upgrade from one release of Progress Dynamics to the next.

This appendix describes the contents of the default configuration file to help you gain an understanding of what this XML file does.

Note: After you start Progress Dynamics for the first time, you should create your own session types that work with your application databases. You should then generate a new configuration file that is saved into your working directory. You can add new session services and types and then regenerate this file to use with your own applications. For more information on generating your own configuration file, see Chapter 2, " Defining and Managing Sessions."
