Configuration options

To change the overall behavior of the HCL UX Screen Flow Manager, several configuration options are available. You specify the options as Resource Environment Provider (REP) properties.

You can enable or disable the Screen Flow Manager by using a single configuration switch. The switch can be found in the REP WP_ConfigService for the portal configuration service

Property: com.ibm.wps.pcm.enabled
Values: true, false
Default: true
Description: If you set this property to true, the Screen Flow Manager is enabled. If you set this property to false, the Screen Flow Manager is disabled.

You can find all other properties that are listed here in the resource environment provider WP_PCMConfig.

Property: com.ibm.wps.pcm.dialog.default.return.uniquename
Value: A valid unique name of a page or portlet window
Default: None. Specify a unique name.
Description: Use this property to specify the default return target to which a user is redirected after a dialog instance ends. For more information, go to Start transitions and special events.

Property: com.ibm.wps.pcm.dialog.default.priority
Value: preserve, suspend
Default: suspend
Description: Determines which default dialog execution priority is used if no priority is explicitly set as part of a particular dialog definition. For more information, go to Execution Priority.
The default execution priority implicitly suspends the active dialog, if a matching start transition can be found as part of the entire set of dialogs available.

Property: com.ibm.wps.pcm.dialog.default.dialogstep.display.endtransition
Values: true, false
Default: true
Description: Use this property to determine whether the end transition is part of the set of dialog steps that is revealed by the dialog state display (DSD) (true) or not (false).

Property: com.ibm.wps.pcm.dcx.jaxb.serialization.mode
Values: on, off, auto
Default: auto
Description: Use this property to determine the JAXB marshalling mode of objects that are put into the DCX by using the DCX API. Use one of the following values:

  • The value on means that data to be stored in the DCX is always JAXB marshaled.
  • The value auto means that the data is JAXB marshaled only if required. The decision is computed by analyzing the class loader hierarchy.
  • The value off means that the data is never JAXB marshaled. For more information, read Packaging of event mappers and JAXB serialization.
