All, I've finally fixed the long standing and often confusion generating issue of properly configuring GUS. This change should be relatively minor, and full details are below, but I wanted to make sure everyone was clear. Short Version: ****** All GUS configuration* now comes from $GUS_HOME/config/ gus.config. $GUS_CONFIG_FILE is no longer used anywhere in the codebase. $GUS_HOME/config/gus.config is created at build time from $PROJECT_HOME/install/gus.config. Thus, you should make changes there and do a build to move them to $GUS_HOME if you need to make config changes. Long Version: In 3.5, we had the gus.config file as well as the $GUS_HOME_CONFIG file. The latter was generated by the former, and some components used one while other components used the other. It thus became confusion to know what configuration you were actually using, and there was of course redundancy. This resolves that issue. An outstanding issue remains how to provide functionality to easily switch between multiple configurations. * (except when otherwise overridden on the command line) |
