7.2.1 Configurable Properties

7.2.1.1 Setting Properties
7.2.1.2 OpenAFS for Windows Properties

Most configurable properties correspond to registry keys or values. Due to the logic invoked based on the existence of these registry keys or values, they are only set if the associated property is defined to have a non null value. If the associated property is not defined in the MSI, the registry key or value will not be touched. By default, the MSI does not contain these properties and hence will not set the registry keys. You will need to add properties as needed to the MSI.

When one of the configurable properties is set, the installer will use the property value to set the corresponding setting in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry hive. The HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive is not touched by the installer.

For each property, the associated registry setting is referenced by the same text used in Appendix A.

Strings are quoted using single quotes (e.g. 'a string'). An empty string is denoted as ''. Note that you can't author null values into the 'Property' table.

Numeric values should be authored as decimal strings.
