Modifying Configuration File
This section contains the configuration information specific to the QXtend product.
The only configuration file that you can modify is the configuration.properties file. This configuration file is used to change the system-default configuration.
To customize your configuration, follow these steps:
1 Define your configuration settings in the configuration.properties file located in the build/config/ folder.
This file only contains settings that differ from the base product configuration (build/config/system) and can initially be empty. To override a setting, add the setting to this file and adjust the value. If the setting is already defined in the file, you can simply adjust the value.
Configuration Properties lists the settings that you can change.
