Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Managers API Reference

Overview

The Configuration File Manager is a server-side procedure. It is the first procedure started in the Progress Dynamics environment and initializes the startup environment. It scans the configuration file, icfconfig.xml, for the definition of the configuration that is starting. Using the information from that definition, it starts the Connection Manager, any specified Service Type Managers, and the Session Manager.

The Configuration File Manager is not a configurable manager. Because it is responsible for starting the Progress Dynamics environment, you should never alter its behavior.

You can retrieve the handle of the Configuration File Manager by running the following code:

ASSIGN hConfigFileManager = DYNAMIC-FUNCTION("getManagerHandle":U, INPUT "ConfigFileManager":U).

Table 1–1 shows the files that contain the Configuration File Manager’s code.
