Set OpenEdge AppServer or WebSpeed PROPATH variable, which is configured in DLC/properties/ubroker.properties file, for example:
#
# Sample AppServer Broker definition
#
[UBroker.AS.asbroker1]
appserviceNameList=asbroker1
brokerLogFile=@{WorkPath}\asbroker1.broker.log
controllingNameServer=NS1
defaultService=1
description=A sample AppServer setup for State-reset
environment=asbroker1
password=
portNumber=3090
PROPATH=.;C:\rcode;C:\Progress\OpenEdge11.6\tty\dynamics;C:\Progress\OpenEdge11.6\tty;C:\Progress\OpenEdge11.6;C:\Progress\OpenEdge11.6\src;@{WinCharStartup\PROPATH};@{WorkPath}
srvrLogFile=@{WorkPath}\asbroker1.server.log
userName=
uuid=932.99.999.XXX:1ee77e:cf3bbe3d33:-8000
When the AppServer or WebSpeed Agent starts, it automatically adds the DLC directory and some sub-directories to its PROPATH in addition to non-default PROPATH.
ABL always preserves these directories or procedure libraries in the PROPATH, even if you change or clear your PROPATH.
Thus, ABL can always find its executables and r-code necessary to function.
For the AppServer and WebSpeed, changes to PROPATH is valid only per Broker. Any sub-processes (batch process) started by the Agents inherit the PROPATH of existing Agent.
When a Broker is started, the Agent automatically adds the top directory of the ABL hierarchy and some subdirectories to its PROPATH.
If the PROPATH statement is used to make a change, or specify additional PROPATH on the Agent's PROPATH, the Agent adds the directories you specify to your existing PROPATH.
ABL replaces separation characters in expression - a colon ( : ) on UNIX; a semicolon ( ; ) in Windows with commas (,), so the resulting PROPATH string can be accessed with the ENTRY function.
Therefore, file path names passed in expression must not include embedded commas.
If you change your PROPATH, and your old PROPATH included r-code libraries that are not in your new PROPATH, those libraries are automatically closed.
If you run a procedure from a closed library, the Agent displays an error message.
