Package INF Files

The Package INF file is essentially the interface between the package build and Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Workstation Installation program. The INF file defines the components that are included in the package, the source and destination paths for those components, and the attributes that are needed to install the package.

The INF file is created during the package build process and is stored in its own package_inf directory, based on the release master directory. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Workstation Installation reads the INF file for the package that it is installing to determine which components are loaded to a workstation, as well as their locations.

Here is a typical INF file for package DV920FA, which is full package A for the DV920 path code. This INF file includes these sections:

  • [SrcDirs]

  • [DestDirs]

  • [FileSets]

  • [FileSetsDescription]

  • [Components]

  • [Typical]

  • [Compact]

  • [Attributes]

  • [Start]
