Editing Configuration Files

The New Configuration File Wizard creates a new .ajcl file and opens the configuration editor. By default, double clicking on a .ajcl file in the package explorer will open it with the configuration editor.

There are similarities between the configuration file editor and the Eclipse Java source editor:

1. Code completion (press Ctrl+Space)
2. Reference following (click a link while holding down Ctrl)
3. Syntax coloring (keywords in red, strings in blue)
4. Errors and warnings
5. Code formatting
6. Outline view

It is important to check that there are no errors in your configuration file before selecting it for use because a configuration with broken links may prevent the diagram editor from rendering.
