Compaq NonStop Pathway/iTS Web Client Programming Manual—520270-001

User Profile Options in the Control File
Parameter Values Description
userAuthenticate=true
getProfile = true
Specifies that the user must enter a valid Guardian user
name, password, and the profile name. The user is
authenticated and the profile data from the profile server is
retrieved. In addition to the values of the registers in the
profile database, values for the PW-TCP-PROCES-SNAME,
PW-TCP-SYSTEM-NAME, and TERMINAL-FILENAME
special registers are also retrieved from the GATEWAY
TERM object.
userAuthenticate=true
getProfile = false
Specifies that the user must enter a valid Guardian user name
and password only. The user is authenticated and the values
for the PW-TCP-PROCESS-NAME, PW-TCP-SYSTEM-
NAME, and TERMINAL-FILENAME special registers are
retrieved from the GATEWAY TERM object. The registers
of the profile database are set to spaces.
userAuthenticate=false
getProfile = true
Specifies that the user must enter a valid profile name only.
No authentication is performed. The values of the registers in
the profile database, and the values for the PW-TCP-
PROCESS-NAME, PW-TCP-SYSTEM-NAME, and
TERMINAL-FILENAME special registers are retrieved from
the GATEWAY TERM object.
userAuthenticate=false
getProfile = false
Specifies that no logon screen is displayed. When the user
opens the browser and goes to the URL for the Pathway/iTS
web application, the application's first screen loads in the
browser. However, before the first screen loads, the values
for the PW-TCP-PROCES-SNAME, PW-TCP-SYSTEM-
NAME, and TERMINAL-FILENAME special registers are
retrieved from the GATEWAY TERM object, and the
registers of the profile database are set to spaces.
encoding Specifies which encoding scheme the applet is to use when
converting the byte-format data it receives from the host to a
string format; valid for single-byte character sets only. The
default value is 8859_1, which supports applications using
the US ASCII character set.
To support applications that use a European character-set,
you must specify the appropriate encoding scheme.
To specify the encoding scheme for applications that use a
Japanese double-byte Kanji-Katakana character set, use the
CHARSET SJIS parameter in the CONVERT command
instead of the encoding parameter in the user profile.
