Run-time configuration settings available in the IDE

The run-time configuration settings for an application are available from within the project's properties in the IDE. Additional settings, Deployment Characteristics, for configuring an application running under enterprise server are available for the Enterprise Server Application project - right-click a service interface which is part of the project, and click Configure Runtime Environment.
Restriction: The run-time configuration settings only apply to native COBOL applications.

Some run-time behavior can be configured only by using run-time tunables, which are stored in a configuration file.

When you build an executable within Visual Studio, the build process automatically copies the application configuration file into the output folder and renames it to <executable-base-name>.exe.mfgcf. (For example, a project that compiles to a program1.exe also has a program1.exe.mfgcf file in the output folder.) The run-time system automatically loads the file when the executable starts.
