LV.conf Format

LDAPviewer uses a configuration file to maintain default information and user preferences. The file is maintained in the User Base Directory/config subdirectory and is a convential text file with the name LV.conf. The contents of this file are updated indirectly by user actions (such as changing the size and location of LDAPviewer windows) or directly when the user selects the Preferences item from the Options menu. In general, the contents of LV.conf should not be manually edited but its format and layout are shown below. Each line item is commented (line begins with #) to explain its purpose, change source and default value as a user convenience - these comments are not present in the operational file.

Note: The value %USER_DIR% indicates the OS specific application directory base as described in User Directories.

Notes:

The backslash (\) characters are inserted automatically by the Java functions as escape characters and must be inserted appropriately if manual editing is performed.
Each line item MUST be present in the file with an appropriate value field. If a line item is deleted it reverts to a default value which may radically change the behavior of the application.
While the above file has been sorted for convenience of documentation, line items are not sorted and may appear in any order.
