WebDAV Root Setting

If you are using TIBCO Forms, the base URL of the form’s location must be specified in the webDAVRoot parameter in the application’s config.xml file.

Note	Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) is a protocol used for publishing and managing content to web servers. TIBCO Forms uses WebDAV to publish forms.

When the client application is installed, the installation program asks if TIBCO Forms are being used, and if so, it allows you to enter the root to WebDAV, which the installation program then writes to the webDAVRoot parameter in config.xml.

If the person installing the client application does not enter the root to WebDAV at that time, it can be specified later by editing the webDAVRoot parameter in config.xml.

To specify the WebDAV root for TIBCO Forms:

1. Open the appropriate config.xml file, depending on whether you are configuring the iProcess Client or a custom application. For information about the file’s location, see Configuration Files.

Locate the webDAVRoot record in the config.xml file. For example:

Replace %TIBCO_CLIENT_WEBDAVROOT% with the base URL of the location at which the TIBCO Forms are stored (this will already contain a URL if one had been entered during the installation). For example:

For more information about TIBCO Forms, see Forms.

Note

The iProcess Workspace (Browser) software automatically loads a JavaScript file called webDAVRoot/META-INF/form_ext.js. This file allows loading and using custom JavaScript libraries inside TIBCO Form validations and events. The form_ext.js file is customized and deployed from TIBCO Business Studio. For more information, see the TIBCO Business Studio Forms User’s Guide.
