Great question.

From the docs:

Setting up Security for Executing Objects

.

For security reasons, you may want to control which objects can be executed by Witango Server. The file that contains the control settings is the object configuration file. The default name of this file is objects.ini; this name is user-definable.

During execution of a Witango application file, if Witango Server encounters a Create Object Instance action involving an object that it is not allowed to run, it returns an error.

The control of object execution can take place at the system level (system scope) or at the application level (application scope).



Here's the default objects.ini (which I admit to having never opened before)

[Objects]
JAVABEAN=
TCF=

[JAVABEAN]
RULE=all
BEANPATH=

[TCF]
RULE=all
~
~
~

So I presume RULE=all means allow any object to be created. I would speculate that you can specify the names of allowed objects here.

    Hi, Everyone.

A question recently came up while thinking about centralized storage for Class files.

I understand that the centralization made possible by TCFSEARCHPATH in witango.ini. However it is not clear for Us as to what is the purpose of objects.ini file and TCF section in it in general.

Is there a reference document somewhere that describes their use?

thank you,

Andre
