JAMS system configuration

The system configuration file (file ending in *.jap) contains general information on the execution of JAMS. This includes:

  • debug=<0..3>: the extent of information which is given as output from the runtime system or from the components(0=no output, 3=maximum output)
  • verbose=<0,1>: a flag which determines whether info and error notices are shown in the command line
  • infolog=<filename>: name of the info log file (if blank, no file is written)
  • errorlog=<filename>: name of the error log file (if blank, no file is written)
  • libs=<dir1|jar1;…;dirN|jarN>: a list separated by semicolons which contains directories and/or libraries which are to be available during the runtime of JAMS (when naming directories, all libraries in the directory are considered)
  • windowenable=<0,1>: a flag which determines whether a model window is shown
  • windowwidth=<size in pixels>: width of the model window
  • windowheight=<size in pixels>: height of the model window
  • windowontop=<0,1>: a flag which determines whether the model window is always on top in the foreground
  • guiconfig=<0,1>: a flag which determines whether the JAMS Launcher is shown
  • guiconfigwidth=<size in pixels>: width of the JAMS Launcher window
  • guiconfigheight=<size in pixels>: height of the JAMS Launcher window
  • errorlog=<0,1>: a flag which determines whether occurring errors are shown in a dialog box

Most of the parameters listed can be edited via the menu Extras->Edit Options of the JAMS Launcher or the model editor. At this point it is also possible to save or load system configuration files.
