Editing Remote Difido Properties from the JSystem Runner

When using the Difido server for reporting executions that are done from the JSystem runner, it is easier to edit the various Difido properties directly from the runner instead of editing the properties file with text editor.

From version 6.1.02, JSystem includes a special tab for editing the Difido properties. This tab is not included by default and you need to configure this option.

NOTE: Do not forget to first add the appropriate report classes to the JSystem property file. For more information, go to the Difido Server Integration with JSystem page.

Adding the tab

The configuration can be done from the JSystem GUI or by editing the jsystem.properties file.

Configuring from the runner GUI

From the runner, open Tools->JSystem properties, and click on the New Features tab. Now, select the add.generic.tab option and click on the edit button.

JSystem will now search for all the possible generic tabs that are included in the classpath. This may take a while depending on your machine.

A dialog with different tabs will be opened (it is possible that you see only one). Select the jsystem.treeui.genericTabs.RemoteDifidoPropertiesTab and click on the Set button and on the Save button.

You will be asked to restart the runner.

Configuring by editing the jsystem properties file

Open the JSystem runner folder and locate the jsystem.properties file. Open it with your favourite text editor and find the add.generic.tab property. Add jsystem.treeui.genericTabs.RemoteDifidoPropertiesTab to the property value. This should look something like this:

add.generic.tabs=jsystem.treeui.genericTabs.RemoteDifidoPropertiesTab

Restart the runner for the changes to take affect.

Usage

In the runner GUI you will now see a new tab under the name Remote Difido Properties. You can now edit each one of the properties. Click on the Save button when finished.

There is no need to init the reports after each change.

Further information on the available properties can be found in the Remote Difido Properties Explained page.
