Generation parameters

The parameters described in this section can be used to define basic default settings at project level, individually for each programming language.

Gene­ra­tion para­meters have the following structure:

ide.<ProgrammingLanguage>.encoding = ...

Where <ProgrammingLanguage> is replaced with the name of the relevant programming language. i.e. Java:

ide.Java.encoding = ...

 

  • ide stands for Integrated Development Environment

  • Parameter names are case-insensitive

Overview

  • Settings are made via key value pairs in confi­gura­tion files

  • LF‑ET searches for confi­gura­tion files backwards in the folder hierarchy, starting from the place where a given de­ci­sion ta­ble is saved

  • Confi­gura­tion files can be nested

  • Two file formats can be used:

    1. INI: the classic INI files consisting of rows each with a "key = value" expression

    2. YAML: a modern and lightweight markup language
