Kernel stanza
The [Kernel] stanza in the .ini file provides parameters to control basic functions of VASTPlatform.
logDeprecations = true | false
Value type: Boolean
Default value: false
Installation value: not specified
Setter: Deprecation class>>#logging:
Specifying true for this parameter will cause a message to be written to an in-memory collection for each Deprecation exception that is signaled. The in-memory collection is not cleared each time the image is started, so its contents remain available in a subsequent execution. To clear the in-memory collection, execute Deprecation resetLog.
Here is a sample script to dump the in-memory collection to the Transcript (replace Transcript with TranscriptTTY default to dump the contents to the console):
Deprecation log ifNil: [
Transcript cr; show: 'Deprecation logging is turned off'.
^ self ].
Deprecation log isEmpty ifTrue: [
Transcript cr; show: 'Deprecation log is empty'.
^ self ].
Transcript cr; show: 'Dump of Deprecation log:'; cr.
Deprecation log occurrenceDictionary keysAndValuesDo: [ :message :count |
Transcript cr; show: count printString; show: ' occurrences of "'; show: message; show: '"' ]
raiseDeprecations = true | false
Value type: Boolean
Default value: false
Installation value: not specified
Setter: Deprecation class>>#raising:
Specifying true for this parameter will cause a message box to open for each Deprecation exception that is signaled.
showDeprecations= true | false
Value type: Boolean
Default value: false
Installation value: not specified
Setter: Deprecation class>>#showing:
Specifying true for this parameter will cause a message to be written to the Transcript (TranscriptTTY in runtime) for each Deprecation exception that is signaled.
walkbackFilename= filename
Value type: filename string
Default value: walkback.log
Installation value: not specified
Setter: EsImageStartUp class>>#walkbackFileName:
This parameter provides an alternative filename for the system walkback log file.
zoneInfoPath=aFullyQualifiedFilename
Value type: filename string
Default value: On Windows, zoneinfo sub directory in the installation directory. Not set on Unix
Installation value: On Windows, zoneinfo sub directory in the installation directory. Not set on Unix
Setter: EsTimeZoneDatabase zoneInfoDir
You should only change this parameter if you want to use a different set of compiled time zone data.
