Session Mode | Define if and how sessions can be restored. ALWAYS_NEW_SESSION - every time the application URL is loaded, a brand new runtime session is started. CONTINUE_FOR_BROWSER - every time the application URL is loaded from the same browser, the user is offered the choice of starting a new runtime or restoring the previous one. CONTINUE_FOR_USER - every time the application URL is loaded by the same user, the user is offered the choice of starting a new runtime or restoring the previous one. In this mode, the user can also restore the runtime session from different devices. This mode will have no effect if Security Module Name is not set to NONE, which would require users to perform authentication each time they open the application. |
Monitor App Responsiveness | ON - Show a progress animation if Swing’s Event Dispatch thread is not responding OFF - Don’t advise users if Swing’s Event Dispatch thread is not responding |

Security Module Class Path | Additional classpath for built-in Security module or for defining custom security module. Use the '+' button to add a new entry. Use the 'x' button to remove an entry. |
Security Module Name | NONE - No authentication is required to access this application. The authentication may be required anyway to access WebClient. EMBEDDED - User authentication is required to access this application. Selecting this value will display a pop-up area with the list of current users, allowing you to edit them or to define new users. The rules to configure this field are the same described in Configuring Users except that they affect the single application instead of the whole WebClient |

Data Store Module Name | Reserved for future use |
Veryant | |
isCOBOL Server address | IP address of the machine where isCOBOL Server is listening. WebClient will connect to the isCOBOL Server in the same way as a isCOBOL Client. This is equivalent to the -hostname option of the isCOBOL Client |
isCOBOL Server port | Port where isCOBOL Server is listening. WebClient will connect to the isCOBOL Server in the same way as a isCOBOL Client. This is equivalent to the -port option of the isCOBOL Client |
Program name and arguments | Name of the main program of the application optionally followed by one or more variables. See Passing command line arguments and end user info to the COBOL program for more details. |
Username | User name for authenticating to the isCOBOL Server in case iscobol.as.authentication is set to "2" in isCOBOL Server’s configuration |
Password | Password for authenticating to the isCOBOL Server in case iscobol.as.authentication is set to "2" in isCOBOL Server’s configuration |
LAF | Look and feel to be used to display application’s windows |
Remote configuration | Remote configuration file for the application. This is equivalent to the -c option of the isCOBOL Client |
Local configuration | Local configuration file for the application. This is equivalent to the -lc option of the isCOBOL Client |
Remote Debug | ON - Enable remote debug on the isCOBOL Server. OFF - Disable remote debug on the isCOBOL Server. |
Remote debug port | Port number of the Remote Debugger in the isCOBOL Server |
Home Folder | Working directory of the application. This is equivalent to the working directory of the isCOBOL Client |
Theme | Specifies the decoration theme for the application windows. It affects mainly the title bar and the menu bar of the windows |
Fonts | Customize logical font mappings and define physical fonts available to application. These fonts will be used for DirectDraw as native fonts. Use the '+' button to add a new mapping. Use the 'x' button to remove a mapping. Every mapping is composed of two items: Key and Value. Key is the name of the font. Value is the path to the font file. Only True Type (ttf) fonts are supported. If no fonts are defined, necessary fonts are loaded from the system by WebClient as the COBOL application requests them. This rule applies to iscobol.font configuration settings as well as calls to the W$FONT routine. If some fonts are defined, these fonts will be the only fonts available for the COBOL application, so be sure to map all the necessary fonts otherwise some calls to W$FONT may fail and some iscobol.font configuration settings may be ignored. Configuring fonts is the only way to change the font used by window title bar and menu bar. For example, the following settings will change the look of the title bar and menu bar: Name: "dialog", Value: "${user.dir}/fonts/Roboto-Regular.ttf" Name: "dialoginput", Value: "${user.dir}/fonts/RobotoMono-Regular.ttf" Name: "serif", Value: "${user.dir}/fonts/RobotoSlab-Regular.ttf" |
DirectDraw Rendering | DirectDraw rendering mode uses canvas instructions to render the application instead of server-rendered png images. DirectDraw improves performance but is not recommended for applications with a lot of graphics content. |
JavaFX Support | ON - Ability to use also JavaFx components. OFF - Only Swing and AWT components allowed. |
