6.6.34.0.aa: Assembly properties for environment entries

Environment entries define variables used to customize the business logic of an application at run-time. This eliminates the need to access or change the application's source code. The container makes the application's environment entries available in a JNDI naming context (java:comp/env). An example environment entry is maxExceptions, describing the maximum number of tax exemptions that are allowed. The environment entry's expected type is java.lang.Integer and its value is 15.

Name (Required, String)
Specifies the name of the environment entry, relative to the java:comp/env context.

Value
Contains the value of the environment entry. The value must be a string that is valid for the constructor of the specified type that takes a single string parameter.

Type (Required, String)
Specifies the fully qualified Java type of the environment entry value that is expected by the module's code. The following are the legal values for this field: java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.String, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Double, java.lang.Byte, java.lang.Short, java.lang.Long, and java.lang.Float.

Description
Contains text describing the environment entries.
