As part of the configuration of Oracle Reports and Express Server, you can optionally use a file called xrpdsprefs.ora
to
specify information for the following options:
Buffer sizes (for Windows and Unix)
Hierarchy indents (for Windows only)
xrpdsprefs.ora
fileThe xrpdsprefs.ora
file is not installed with Oracle Reports.
If you want to use the file to set options, then you can create the file and
store it in the same directory as the xrpdsxxx.jar
file
(where xxx
is a version number), which is the ORACLE_HOME/reports/jlib
directory on Windows and the ORACLE_HOME/jlib
directory
on UNIX. The JAR
file exists on the machines for both Reports Builder
and Reports Server. You should edit the settings as you want them in the xrpdsprefs.ora
file on the Reports Builder machine, then copy the file to the Reports Server
machine.
xrpdsprefs.ora
fileThe xrpdsprefs.ora
file is a plain text file in which the pound sign (#) specifies a comment.
The following example shows a fragment of an example xrpdsprefs.ora
file.
# Hierarchy properties
options.hierarchy.indent.count=3
options.hierarchy.indent.string="+"
# SNAPI properties
options.snapi.FetchAlloc=5M
# Connection file properties
options.ecf.version=632
