Workshop.properties Configuration File

Note: The Workshop.properties file is required for proper operation of WebLogic Workshop. The visual development environment will not function if this file is corrupted or deleted. Use caution if you choose to edit this file, and make a backup copy of the original version.

All properties in this file may be overridden on a per-user basis by specifying a value for that property in the user's .Workshop file. It is recommended that changes be made to the .Workshop file instead of this file. See .Workshop Configuration File.

The Workshop.properties file specifies global (for this machine) configuration properties for the WebLogic Workshop visual development environment. Each property that may be set is listed below with its default value.

Workshop.properties is located in BEA_HOME\weblogic700\workshop.

Workshop.properties is a Java property file that is read as a java.util.PropertyResourceBundle. As such, the following characters must be escaped with a backslash ('\') if used in a property value: {, }, =, :, \, and EOL.
