Setting Project Properties

Set evaluation, externalization, and encryption property options for the EL project.

Click Property options in the Advanced tab to set one of these properties:
  • Property Evaluation – the Evaluate option lets you compute and evaluate dynamic property settings at runtime instead of assigning static values at design time. For some property items, the Evaluate option is selected, by default. To enable evaluation for a property, select the Eval check box next to the property. Once the Evaluate option is activated you can include JavaScript expressions in the corresponding field using square bracket notation (SBN) (where supported). The Eval check box is disabled for properties that do not support evaluation.

  • Property Exernaliztion – the External option lets you expose properties as execution parameters, for use in Parameter Sets. For some property items, the External option is by default, selected. To externalize a property as an execution parameter, select the Ext check box next to the property.

  • Property Encryption – EL Project data, as well as property values, are stored in the Sybase IQ InfoPrimer repository. Most of the records in the Sybase IQ InfoPrimer repository are not encrypted. For the password property, the Encrypt option by default, is selected. To encrypt property values, select the Enc check box next to the property.
