URL Configuration Parameter

Specifies the location and name of the Business Interlink plug-in to be used to connect to the external system. This configuration parameter takes a string value.

If the plug-in is located on a web server, you have to specify the name of the web server.

If you specify a file, you can specify either a relative or an absolute path:

  • If you specify an absolute path, you must specify the drive letter:

    &MYBI.URL = "File://D:\TEMP.MYDLL";
  • If you specify a relative path, just use the file name:

    &MYBI.URL = "File://TEMP.MYDLL";

If you specify a relative path, the system firsts looks for the file in the Location directory (specified by the user when the Business Interlink was first created), then it looks in the directory where PeopleTools is installed, in the PSTOOLS/Interface Drivers directory.
