Description

Description:
In TIBCO Designer, there are read-only global variables(e.g. Imported from Design Time Libraries(DLT)) that are greyed out and cannot be edited directly.

Resolution

There are several ways to override global variables.


1). In Designer -> Global Variables panel, click the pencil icon (Open Advanced Editor) at top right, select the global variable and right click ->  “Override Variable”.


2). Use the Project -> “Save as” option to save as a new project. Global variables will then be editable.


3). Go to Tester -> "Advanced" test settings with the "-p PATH/properties.cfg" argument, with PATH being the absolute path and properties the file that override global variables.


4).Change the variable in TIBCO administrator GUI during deployment.


5). Manually edit the bwengine.tra.
