Note: When no files (e.g. hwjvf.properties), are found in the directory $HOME/.hwjava (UNIX) or $HOME/hwjava (Windows NT),the data is read from the original global configuration file.
CONFIGURING THE BROWSER
Note: This section applies to UNIX only.
To configure the browser you wish to use to view documents from Java Virtual Folders:
application.to_start_for_url= netscape -remote "openurl(%u)"
CONFIGURING NATIVE VIEWERS

Where [mimetype] is the document type for which the new viewer should be registered.
application.to_start.text/java=emacs
or
application.to_start.image/*=xv
CONFIGURING JAVA VIEWERS
Note: This section on Configuring Java Viewers is for programmers' use only.
A Java viewer is the most efficient way to add viewers. It can also be used to add additional features such as edit, send mail, print, etc. The Java class which is to act as a viewer (or editor, or printer) must implement the CommandObject Interface as defined in the Java Activation Framework.
To configure the Java viewers you wish to use to view documents from the Java Virtual Folders:
where com.foo.RTFViewer is a Java viewer class you have written for viewing RTF documents.
Note: Make sure your viewer class and its helper classes are in your CLASSPATH environment variable.
CONFIGURING EDIT, PRINT COMMANDS
Note: This section on Configuring Edit print Commands is for programmers' use only.
To add any other command to a mimetype, like edit, print, mail etc., you must enter x-java-[command] where [command] is to be replaced by the specified command.
The name of this command will also be used as a menu item name for the context-sensitive menu where you can select a viewer. Registered commands will only be selectable if you have write access to the object. If your command is really only a viewer and does not change the content of the object, you can register it as read-only. Add the command name to the application.command_readonly key in the file:
