ClassiX® Environment Variables
The environment variables for ClassiX listed below are divided into system, user and ObjectStore environment variables. System variables are evaluated by the ClassiX® basic system itself, user variables control application and user-specific settings. The ObjectStore environment variables that are normally required for operation with ClassiX are listed here. Help for working with environment variables can be found here.
- ClassiX System Environment Variables
- ClassiX User Environment Variables
- HESTIA environmental variables
- ObjectStore environment variables
Environment variables need not necessarily be set before starting ClassiX. Instead they can be passed to ClassiX with the parameter -E (e.g. -ECX_LOGGING_INI=logging.ini).
System Environment Variables
Most of the following environment variables can also be set in the classix.cfg file in the startup directory. In this file the variables are written in lower case and the "CX_" is omitted.
| Name | Description | Value | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| CX_ABEND | Protocol for ClassiX® abort. | String, logfile name. Default: CX_SYSTEM\CXAbend.log or CX_ROOTDIR\system\CXAbend.log | only for ClassiX® supervisor |
| CX_ARENA_SIZE 214839 | Size of the Arena in ClassiX (in bytes) | Number (decimal, or hexadecimal with '0x' prefix) Default: 0x800000 (=8MB) | The arena is the ring buffer used by ClassiX for the intermediate results of arithmetic operations. If the arena is too small, intermediate results that are still needed may be overwritten. |
| CX_BIRT_DEBUG_CONSOLE | Flag, whether a console should be opened when calling Birt | String (e.g. TRUE or ON) Default: not defined | If the call of Birt reports does not work, the console can be switched on to see the error messages when calling. If the call is successful, the console will automatically close again. |
| BIRT_HOME | In this directory, the BIRT programmes are searched | BIRT_HOME=c:\programme\birt-runtime-osgi-4.6.0 | Is defined via the general Windows environment variable on the PC or via the calling batch file. |
| CX_BITMAP | Directories in which bitmaps are searched | String Default: CX_ROOTDIR\bmp | the directories are separated by semicolon and searched in the order given |
| CX_CACHE_SIZE_FACTOR | Portion that the ObjectStore Cache should receive from the free memory. It is recommended to set this instead of the OS_CACHE_SIZE environment variables, because this way the cache size dynamically adapts to the size of the client memory. | Number Default: 25 | in % |
CX_CHANGELOG_DIR | Sets the directory to which the change history logs are written. Influences the variable CX_CHANGELOGFILENAME for logging.ini. | String Default: System\Changelog | If log4cplus.OrganizeLogsByDate is set in logging.ini, the changelogs in subdirectories are sorted by the current date /YYYY/MM/DD |
| CX_CHECK_CLUSTERED_SET_INSERTS 223726 | If set, then every n inserts is checked to see if a SET(Collection) is mainly filled with clustered objects, which can lead to performance problems. | Number 1-n Default: 0 | The information is logged to the logger cx.omgr.set.clustering. |
| CX_CLUSTERING | Pattern | Number < 256 Default: 0 | controls the master / slave object criteria for clustering |
| CX_CORBA_HOSTNAME | Name of the CORBA server object in the NamingService | String | Should only be used if a unique name is appropriate. For scalability or reliability, it is better to use the name hierarchy. |
| CX_CORBA_OPTIONS | initialisation values to the CORBA initialisation routine (e.g. to select the NamingService). | e.g. -ORBInitRef NameService=corbaloc:iiop:liserver:1245/NameService | |
| CX_CORBA_PROJECT | The name of the CORBA project. | String | Represents the middle part of the name hierarchy and should be preferred to CX_CORBA_HOSTNAME. |
| CX_CRASHDUMP_DIR | Directory for the crash dump files | String Default: CX_SYSTEM_OUT | With this environment variable, the target directory for crash dump files can be set (see CX_CRASHDUMP_MODE). No date directory structure is created here. If CX_CRASHDUMP_DIR is not set, crash dumps are stored directly next to the log files. |
| CX_CRASHDUMP_MODE | Detail level of the crash dump | Number Default: 0 | If a ClassiX application crashes, a crash dump file is automatically written, which contains information about the application at the time of the crash. The files are written to the System directory or the directory set by CX_CRASHDUMP_DIR and are named "CXcrash_.dmp". Together with the log files they are used by the ClassiX base developers to analyse the problem in order to identify and fix the reason for the crash. This environment variable can be used to set the information scope of the dump file. Currently two levels are supported:
|
| CX_DATABASE | full path of the first database | Full path of the database file | CLASSIX.INI environment variable. See also the notes on securing the database |
| CX_DB_DEFAULT_MODE | Standard database opening mode | WRITE, KEEP_UPDATE or READ_ONLY | If a transaction is opened automatically, writing is possible with WRITE, but not with READ_ONLY, because the database is opened in MVCC mode. KEEP_UPDATE opens the database as in WRITE mode, but BeginTXN(READ) statements (to switch to MVCC mode) are ignored. |
| CX_DEBUG_EXTERNAL_WAIT 221780 | Wait for external debugger at startup. | Not set, run, suspend | If set, ClassiX starts the access for the external debugger before the first line of InstantView is executed and waits with the programme start until the external debugger is connected. run = As soon as the debugger is connected, the process continues to run normally. suspend = As soon as the debugger is connected, processing is stopped and the debugger stops at the first line of InstantView code. |
| CX_DEBUG_PROGRESS_WINDOW 227267 | Not set or 1 | Shows additional information about the currently used estimator and the error value in the progress window. | |
| CX_DUMP_ON_EXCEPTIONS | Create a crash dump in case of errors | numbers separated by , or ; | If one of the specified exceptions occurs, a crash dump will be written. The content is determined by the set crash dump mode. The file is located in the set directory (see CX_CRASHDUMP_DIR) and is named: "CXcrash_excp.dmp". This setting should only be used for debugging purposes. Writing a dumpfile when an error occurs can lead to a noticeable blockage of the application. |
| CX_EDITOR | Path to the text editor and call parameters (see monitor window) | VSCode
| Attention! If this environment variable is set, an exception message will offer to jump to the source code concerning the error message. |
| CX_ELSTER_HOME 232881 | Path to the \elster directory | Full directory path Default: %CX_BIN%\elster | The ericapi.dll including \plugins2 directory is expected in this directory if Elster is used. The variable does not usually have to be set, but can be specified to store the Elster directory elsewhere. |
| CX_ENABLE_GHOST_WINDOWS 233108 | Reactivate ghost window | Not set or 1 | 233108, window ghosting is disabled by default because it causes "(No feedback)" to appear in the title when ClassiX is busy for a long time, sometimes messing up the window order. This means that the ClassiX windows can no longer be moved or minimised during this time. If moving a busy ClassiX instance is felt to be necessary, the old behaviour can be reactivated via this variable. |
| CX_EXEC | EXE file with which ClassiX is started. | e.g.: cx_oso.exe or cx_osuo.exe | |
| CX_FORCED_LOGFILENAME 198888 | Sets the value of CX_LOGFILENAME so that the log file is written to a specific location without having to adjust the logging.ini | String | |
| CX_GARBAGE_LOGGING_THRESHOLD | Log garbage collection runs that last longer than n milliseconds | Number (in milliseconds) | Logging in category cx.gc with INFO level |
CX_HELPROOT | Address of the online documentation of the ClassiX® system | String Default: http address http://appswarehouse.de http://instantview.org | The online documentation of the ClassiX® system is based on Tiki Wiki. CX_HELPROOT should be defined as empty. Together with these variables CX_WIKI_HELP must also be set to TRUE If environment variable CX_HELPROOT is defined, the HTML file is saved in |
| CX_HELP_SYSTEM | Selection of the method by which ClassiX tries to communicate with the browser. | String, the following values are allowed and are tried in this order until one is successful: SYSTEM Several values can be listed separated by commas. If the variable is not set, all methods are tried. | Help pages are displayed as HTML pages in the browser. It is the user's responsibility to install and use a browser of his choice. ClassiX can try in different ways to determine the browser set and to cause it to display certain help pages.
|
| CX_HIDE_OS_EXCEPTION_REPORT | If enabled, prevents the error message of an exception issued by ObjectStore from being displayed in the error window | Boolean: 1, TRUE or 0, FALSE or not set | |

| CX_HTTPS_CERT_FILE | Path to the file containing the server certificate. | String, e.g. C:\ssl\server.crt | Required to start the server for the WebService interface with HTTPS. |
| CX_ICONMAPPER | Mapping of icon names in InstantView®--Code to names of image files for different variants | Default is imageMap.json in the system directory | possible values: - File name, the path to the system directory is added - complete path, CX_ROOTDIR is substituted from version 4.5.2.170796 |
| CX_IGNORE_VERSION_CHECK | Ignores invalid operating system configurations | Boolean Default: FALSE | Is used to run a ClassiX application "exceptionally" on an actually unsupported operating system configuration (e.g. ClassiX 4.5 32-bit on Windows Vista 64-bit). This variable cannot be set in the classix.cfg. |
| CX_LICENSE_FILE | Path to the licence file | String, e.g. c:\classix\classix.lic | Must always be specified, otherwise the system cannot find a licence file. |
| CX_KEEP_GARBAGE_MODE 231713 | DEEP, FLAT Default: DEEP | Controls how KeepGarbage works. FLAT = Old behaviour: Only the main objects registered with the garbage collection are replaced by auxiliary objects. DEEP = New behaviour: The main objects and all subobjects (slots, DDI members) are replaced by auxiliary objects. | |
| CX_LOCALE_FILENAME | Name of the locale definition file | String Default: "Locales.txt" | Name of the XML file containing the locale definitions The file is searched for in the machine path. |
| CX_LOGGING_INI | Configuration file for logging system | File path of the logging.ini file. Default: %CX_SYSTEM%\logging.ini | file is always searched in the ClassiX® system directory. If the file path is explicitly set - and if it is wrong - NO log file is written to the system directory, but to Standard-Out. |
| CX_MACRO_LOGGING_THRESHOLD | Only log the runtime of macros that ran for at least n seconds | Number (in seconds, resolution is 1 second) | The logging for the category cx.rqdsp.time must be set to DEBUG |
| MorphIT | |||
| CX_MORPHITE_BACKGROUND | Is set if ClassiX was started by the MorphIT launcher. | 1 or not set | This variable is set automatically by the launcher and must not be changed manually, otherwise the NodeJS server will refuse the connection.

| CX_SHOW_LOADED_DLLS | In the logfile all loaded dlls are logged, which are already loaded directly before the PAR (Persistent Address Range) is defined by ObjectStore. | TRUE or FALSE Default: FALSE | Can be used to investigate address space errors, but should not be set by default, as the ClassiX® start is slightly delayed. |
| CX_SHOW_ALL_WINDOWS_IN_TASKBAR | By default, 202491 lists all ClassiX windows in the taskbar. This can be prevented by this environment variable, so that only the control windows of the project are displayed. | 1 or 0 Default: 1 | |
| CX_SHOW_STACK_ON_ERROR | When an error occurs, the error message displays the IV stack valid before the IV command that caused the error. | 0 or 1 Default: 0 | 0 or not set: Stack is not displayed. 1: Stack is displayed. Collecting and carrying the stack information is time-consuming. Therefore it is switched off by default. In the event of an error, the stack display can be switched on to provide additional information on the occurrence of the error. |
| CX_SOURCE_ENCODING 218991 | Defines how ClassiX should handle source files without BOM | car, legacy, utf8 | auto - determine encoding by scanning the file (default) legacy - adopt CP850 utf8 - adopt UTF8 |

| CX_TCP_CONNECTION_IPV4_ONLY | Forcing resolution of host names in IPv4 addresses | TRUE or FALSE Default: FALSE | If the variable is set, the CX_TCP_CONNECTION class resolves host names only in IPv4 addresses. |
| CX_TCP_CONNECTION_READ_TIMEOUT | Set the default timeout for read operations. | INTEGER Default:0 | The variable specifies the maximum waiting time for read calls of the CX_TCP_CONNECTION class in milliseconds. This timeout can be adjusted for each individual connection via the DDI field readTimeout. |
| CX_TRAY_DISABLE | Disable tray completely | TRUE or FALSE Default: FALSE | If the variable is set, the logger is also deactivated |
| CX_TRAY_DISABLE_DRAG_DROP | Disable drag and drop support for the tray | TRUE or FALSE
218020 is the default value for this variable TRUE | If there are problems with the tray, it is recommended to set this variable because the tray reads data from the taskbar memory to ensure dragging.

ObjectStore environment variables
| Name | Description | (Example) value | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| OS_SCHEMA_PATH | Path to the schema databases of the ClassiX system (*.adb files). These files must physically always be on the same server as the database | Path name | |
| OS_AS_SIZE | see here | 0x5000000000 | |
| OS_AUTH | Authentication type against the ObjectStore server | NONE | |
| OS_ENABLE_DECACHE_SOFT_POINTERS_AFTER_AS_RELEASE | Specifies whether to release the cache for soft pointers after an address space release. | 1 | Should only be set if there are major problems with address space. Under 64-Bit it is only a performance brake |
| OS_CACHE_SIZE | The size of the cache can be set (under 64bit) to a maximum of 0x20000000000, i.e. 2TB. Care must be taken to set the cache size to no larger than half the available working memory. The cache size should be set smaller if additional ObjectStore sessions or other memory intensive applications are running at the same time. It is recommended to set the environment variable CX_CACHE_SIZE_FACTOR (see above) instead, which calculates the cache size as a percentage of the working memory and then dynamically sets the OS_CACHE_SIZE with this value. | 0x100000000 | e.g. 4GB with a working memory of 8GB |
