Oracle Configurator Implementation Guide Release 12.1 for Part Number E14322-03 | ![]() Contents | ![]() Previous | ![]() Next |
This chapter explains how to modify certain Oracle Configurator files as well as the purpose of the files and where they can be found.
This chapter covers the following topics:
To customize Oracle Configurator in your host application, you may need to modify certain Oracle Configurator files. This chapter describes:
As a prerequisite, you must have installed Oracle Configurator. See the Oracle Configurator Installation Guide for details.
You may wish to move certain files to other locations, to suit your site or host application requirements. This section describes constraints and guidelines on their location.
The table General Structure of Directories for Oracle Configurator shows the directories required for the runtime Oracle Configurator, and their relationship. This general structure applies to all platforms, though the details may vary by platform. In some cases, the same physical directory may fill more than one role.
Note that it is not necessary for the Servlet directory to have a separate physical location, because the files it contains are referenced by environment variables that you set while installing the runtime Oracle Configurator servlet.
The Servlet directory contains files that must be referenced in the PATH and CLASSPATH environment variables.
The table Files for the Servlet Directory shows the files that should be installed in the Servlet directory.
By default, the HTML directory is the directory pointed to by the Oracle Applications alias OA_HTML.
By default, the Media directory is the directory pointed to by the Oracle Applications alias OA_MEDIA.
The image files in the Media directory are used by the runtime Oracle Configurator to decorate your customized user interfaces, and also to represent application logic state in DHTML legacy user interfaces.
Important: As of this release, DHTML UIs are no longer supported.
These files must be compatible with web browser technology. You cannot use BMP (Windows bitmap) files in your user interface for the Oracle Configurator window, because this file format is not compatible with Web browsers. The runtime Oracle Configurator window can use GIF, JPG, and other formats compatible with Web browsers.
