Global Attributes
I need to access a global attribute (for example Database Connection String)from some of my Channels. Is there some way I can set this in the Profiling Service (before I even start up IPS) and use/read it from all my applications. I tried something like:
creating XML file (iwtMyDBInfo.xml) with single attr, iwtMyDBInfo-connectstring.
I imported it ipsadmin -import ./iwtMyDBInfo.xml and restarted IPS Server.
However, I cannot read the attribute using:
getAttributeString(component name, key, default) or
getAttributeString(key, default). I know I could getUserProperty or getProperty, but that implies is the Property is somehow being set somewhere else. I want the property to be set/accessible without any User intervention. Can I do this and is so I'm looking for suggestions.
