Search for Project.ini files

The search for LFET.Project.ini files is carried out in this order:

  1. First of all, LF‑ET checks in the directory of the decision table whether there is a file with the same name for the decision table which, however, in addition to .lfet ends with .ini or .yaml. Here is an example:

       PasswortChecker.lfet
   PasswortChecker.lfet.yaml

  1. A search is then run in the decision table directory for files with the names: Project.ini, LFET.Project.ini, Project.yaml or LFET.Project.yaml.

  2. The search for those files is then run from there in the folder structure backwards to root directory.

File names are case-insensitive.

Both search steps originating from user.dir and user.home system directories, which were e­xe­cu­ted additionally in earlier LF‑ET versions at the request of a customer, have been deactivated in consultation with the customer as they may, in rare cases, lead to serious runtime problems.

Automatic Search

Project.ini files are searched for and evaluated automatically:

  • after each opening of a decision table

  • before each saving of a decision table

  • before each program code generation

  • before each test case generation
