Adapter Properties Files

The runtime adapter parses one or more properties files at startup. Properties files contain the properties to be used for the adapter.

The followings are the default runtime adapter properties files for TIBCO ActiveMatrix Adapter for SAP (TIBCO Business Studio):

  • adr3.tra
  • TIDManager.tra
  • adr3Discoverer.tra

These default properties files are located in the TIBCO_HOME/adapter/adr3/version_number/bin directory.

In this directory, the adapter also provides template TRA files for each properties file. When an properties file is corrupted or deleted by mistake, you can use the corresponding template file to recreate it.

Each line in a properties file is a single property. Each property consists of a key and a value. The key starts with the first non-whitespace character and ends at the first occurrence of one of the following characters:

(space) : =

The value starts at the first character after any of the previous three characters.

For example:

  • tibco.configurl=/tibco/private/adapter/test/config/config1
  • tibco.repourl=tibcr://TEST_PROJECT
  • tibco.username=admin
  • tibco.password=samplePassword
  • tibco.clientVar.service=7600
  • tibco.clientVar.daemon=tcp:7600

You also have to following the format rules as described in Properties File Format, when you define or specify a property in properties files.

Note: If passwords in properties files are confidential, you can encrypt the passwords as described in Encrypting Passwords.

Properties defined in the properties file of a deployed service override the same properties defined in the project. The properties file of a deployed service is located in the following directory: TIBCO_TRA_DOMAIN_HOME/Domain_Name/application/ApplicationDeployment_Name.
