DmyFlag NO
As far as I can tell I can create a 'Properties' file in WebObjects
and use this. does anyone have a working example that they could
share.
If you could substitute true/false for YES/NO, in your Application
constructor:
myFlag = Boolean.getBoolean("myFlag");
in which "myFlag" is an Application instance variable with an
appropriate accessor method that supports access of myFlag from other
objects. If myFlag isn't set in the Properties file or as a launch
argument, myFlag will be false.
If you must use YES/NO values:
String value = System.getProperty("myFlag", defaultValue);
in which "defaultValue" is the value if no "myFlag" Properties entry or
launch argument exist.
The Properties entry would look like:
myFlag = true
A launch argument takes precedence over a Properties entry which takes
precedence over a default value defined in Java code.
