WebSphere Commerce Accelerator definition files

The WebSphere Commerce Accelerator is defined by numerous XML files, JSP files, and properties files. The XML files, which are further governed by DTD files, define the framework. The JSP files define the display content. All of the text strings are stored in properties files to facilitate national language translations.

The XML files that define the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator can be found in the /WCDE_installdir/xml/tools/common directory. While all of the XML files defining the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator framework are located in this directory, it would be uncommon that you would need to perform a customization on most of them, as the resulting change would affect every application of the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator. Still, by modifying the following files, you can modify the menu options that are available within the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator for any given user role.
