specify properties at start up developer

Postby siemon.geeroms » Fri Jan 08, 2016 5:20 pm

Hi,

Can you specify the desired properties file with which you want to start your developer via for example cmd? I have different properties files that refer to other DB connections and I would like to start different workspaces with those different connections.

Kr,

Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply, unfortunately the parameter "-Dproperty-file" is only working if I add it to the .ini file. If I add it as a parameter when executing the servoy.exe like this "C:\Servoy\developer\servoy.exe -Dproperty-file=test.properties" it is still taking the default "servoy.properties".

I think you need more something like:

Code: Select all
"C:\Servoy\developer\servoy.exe --launcher.ini <path_to_one_servoy.ini_file>"
and then you can make multiple copies of the .ini file that declare the -Dproperty-file

or

Code: Select all
"C:\Servoy\developer\servoy.exe -vmargs -Dproperty-file=test.properties"
but I don't know in this case if it just merges these -vmargs with the ones in your .ini file or not. Maybe you have to put all those from the ini here as well if it doesn't.

You can find an example of using directly -vmargs here viewtopic.php?f=13&t=13814#p72262.

Thanks Andrei Costescu,

This worked, I've created a separate ini file and added this a argument to my shortcut!

Kind regards,

I'm using separate batch files to start my Servoy projects, which works great:

Code: Select all
"<path_to>\servoy.exe" -data "<path_to>\project_workspace" eclipse -showlocation -vmargs -Xms40m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512M -Dproperty-file=<project>.properties
