Default Configurations File Location

AWM attempts to parse the file in one of these locations:

<Eclipse root folder>\DefaultConfigurations.xml
The path specified in the Java VM argument teamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath

Use one of the following methods to set the Java VM argument:

With the -D parameter in the <Eclipse root folder>\eclipse.ini<Eclipse root folder>/eclipse.ini file under -vmargs. For example:

-vmargs -Dteamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath=C:\default_configs.xml

-vmargs -Dteamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath=/etc/AWM/config/defaultconf.xml

Setting the argument in the mfeclipse.ini file in Visual COBOL. For example:
```
teamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath=C:/default_configs.xml
```
```
teamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath=/etc/AWM/config/defaultconf.xml
```
Note: The value must be a valid Java string when using mfeclipse.ini. Since \ is an escape character, you can use either \\ or / for file path separators. You can create the mfeclipse.ini file if it does not exist.

Note: If you want to change the default configuration file to adapt it to site specific standards, you should copy it to its own path and set this path in the Java VM argument teamdeveloper.defaultConfigurationsPath. Otherwise the file might be overwritten with the next Visual COBOL installation.
