If you install the complete ATG product suite, together with the Quincy Funds demo, ATG Commerce, and the Pioneer Bike Store demo, the standard external user profile repository definition is defined as a composite of the /atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml files in the following JAR files:
<ATG2007.3dir>/DPS/config/profile.jar<ATG2007.3dir>/B2CCommerce/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/DSS/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/DCS/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/PioneerCycling/config/config.jar
plus the following XML file:
<ATG2007.3dir>/DSSDemo/config/atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml
If you install the B2CCommerce suite, the standard user profile repository definition is defined as a composite of the /atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml files in the following JAR files:
<ATG2007.3dir>/DPS/config/profile.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/DSS/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/DCS/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/B2BCommerce/config/config.jar
<ATG2007.3dir>/B2BStore/config/config.jarplus the following XML file:
<ATG2007.3dir>/DSSDemo/config/atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml
The external user profile repository definition is specified by the definitionFiles property of the ProfileAdapterRepository component. This property names a file in the ATG CONFIGPATH. Each of the above-listed user profile repository definition files appears in the CONFIGPATH at /atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml. The system uses XML file combination to combine these files into a single definition to use for the profile repository. XML file combination is described in detail in the XML File Combination section of the Nucleus: Organizing JavaBean Components chapter in the ATG Programming Guide. This section describes some factors to remember in modifying the standard user profile repository definition with XML file combination.
When you extend a user profile repository definition, it is important to understand how the Dynamo Application Framework combines XML files. An item descriptor cannot have two properties with the same name. The xml-combine="replace" directive works only with property definitions that match exactly, from the outermost tag to the property tag.
