Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-6670:
-------------------------------------
Hi Jacques,
I came across this one: OFBIZ-4730. Both the discussion and the ticket were
catalysts to the change. However, though good suggestions were made in the
thread, nobody picked up on the aspect of difference between the configuration
aspects for OFBiz initialisation and the configuration aspects vis-a-vis
runtime.
Applications don't not need initialisation configuration as framework takes
care of that. So, anything in an application's property file is to be
considered as 'run-time'. And thus to be in a SystemProperty record.
> Have configuration options for Content.

> Key: OFBIZ-6670
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6670
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: content
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Assignee: Pierre Smits
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Upcoming Branch
>
>
> The configuration of an OFBiz is determined by 2 aspects:
> # configuration settings required to successfully start the implementation
> # configuration settings required to have component functions work properly
> The latter involve default choices for various functions to cater to the
> usability of business processes (and therefore screen/forms and/or
> screens/templates.
> Several of these configuration settings are already loaded into the
> SystemProperty table in the underlying RDBMS, to enable adjustments of the
> systemPropertyValue while the implementation is in use. While it is not
> expected that these settings change often, it is possible that they are
> required to be changed during the lifespan of the company/organisation.
> However, it should not be required to go through a deployment process of
> regarding such changed configuration settings in the OFBiz production
> instance (which most - if not all - companies/organisations require when
> files are changes).
> Having all configuration settings of components in the SystemProperty table
> enhances the usability of OFBiz allowing system administrators to adjust the
> value(s) of system property records while the instance keeps running.
