Portable xProcess

[alex.pavko]

Hi,
is it possible to run xProcess without creating .xprocess folder in the users home directory?
Which parameters in ini file should be changed?

Hi Alex
Currently this is hardcoded I'm afraid, though I expect it would be straightforward to change it to look for a parameter in the ini file and if not present to (defaulting to the usual home directory). Is it a change you need?

Hi Andy,

Looking at it I think they want a portable version of xProcess. Put it
on a USB stick and set the parameter to write to the USB stick as well.
As long the computer you attached it to has Java it should run.

Hi,
As I wrote xprocess create a folder .xprocess in users home. And this is a problem of portability.
But it can run from any place.

Hi Alex,

With the parameter -Duser.home you can set the folder in which xProcess creates .xprocess. For example -Duser.home=/path/to/parent/of/dot-xprocess (on the command-line). The parameter has to come after the -vmargs parameter to signify that it is a parameter to the java virtual machine.

Example xprocess.ini contents:

-vmargs
-Xms256m
-Xmx512m
-Duser.home
/path/to/parent/of/dot-xprocess

I hope this helps,

Flemming
