Environment entries assembly properties

Use the assembly properties to change the settings for environment entries.

Environment entries define variables for use at run-time. The container makes the application environment entries available in a JNDI naming context (java:comp/env). An example environment entry is maxExceptions , describing the maximum number of tax exemptions that are allowed. The expected type of the environment entry is java.lang.Integer and its value is 15.

To view the settings for environment entries in the Application Assembly Tool, click on an application client (.jar file) in the navigation tree and then double-click on Environment Entries in the Name list.
