20.3.2 Deciding where to locate configuration settings

When you set up a JavaHelp or Oracle Help project, if configuration file _d2javahelp.ini (or _d2oraclehelp.ini) is not already present in your project directory, you must copy this file from your DITA2Go config\local directory (see §1.3.1 Set up a framework for Omni Systems applications).

Which configuration file?

To configure output, add settings to one of the following files, depending on the desired scope of each setting.

For JavaHelp output:

Scope

Configuration file

Location

Current project only

_d2javahelp.ini
Current project directory

All JavaHelp projects

local_d2javahelp_config.ini
%omsyshome%\d2g\local\config\

For Oracle Help output:

Scope

Configuration file

Location

Current project only

_d2oraclehelp.ini
Current project directory

All Oracle Help projects

local_d2oraclehelp_config.ini
%omsyshome%\d2g\local\config\

See §39.4 Deciding which configuration file to edit.
