#9 Use existing dfc.properties file
It would be nice to be able to reuse existing dfc.properties file (or to be able to configure the generated one) and not writing it every time to "config" directory.
For example providing the dfc.properties file path as an argument to the exe file.
I submitted this request due to an "almost-bug": readme does not state that this tool can be run only on english Operating Systems, so when I ran it from my hungarian Windows, I got the following exception, as it is different from english one:
09:05:01,778 ERROR [AWT-EventQueue-0] com.documentum.fc.common.DfPreferences - [DFC_PREFERENCE_BAD_VALUE] Bad value for preference "dfc.date_format", value="yyyy.MM.dd. H:mm:ss"
com.documentum.fc.common.DfException: Illegal syntax found in the date format 'yyyy.MM.dd. H:mm:ss'.
It is not a problem if we provide the following line in dfc.properties:
dfc.date_format=yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss
But as we cannot override what is going to be included in the config folder's dfc.properties file, this error occurs.
DRX stacktrace
Starting from version 2.1.1, you have the ability to edit the config/dfc.properties file. Changes you make are no longer overwritten by DRX.
