About BIRT iHub utilities
The following sections provide information on how to specify properties and perform operations using the following utilities:
*Encyclopedia Data Store Administrator
*System Data Store Administrator
*Encyclopedia Data Store Upgrader
When configuring Encyclopedia Data Store Administrator, System Data Store Administrator, or Encyclopedia Data Store Upgrader properties files, observe the following rules:
*Use / in path settings. \ is an escape character.
*Use Unicode property values. Save the property file in UTF-8 format, including the UTF-8 byte order mark (BOM).
*Use # at the start of a line to add a comment or selectively comment out properties.
When reading the property files, the utilities remove leading and trailing whitespace automatically, but preserve embedded whitespace.
