The speaker lineup and the early attendee list bodes well for plenty of interesting and lively conversations. ControlTier will have a booth in the exhibit hall so if you attend Velocity stop by for a demo of our latest tools or to swap war stories with our hard working engineers. Not registered for Velocity?

Thanks. Im Inspired again.
i wanted to know in the new version of conntroltier is there an option for add objects and types from a template. if yes can you tell me how it is doing ?
Hi jojy,
Yes you can generate object and type definitions from template files. For example, if you wanted to generate a set of objects based on an existing data set, there are a couple of approaches I can suggest:
1) Write a script that generates project XML documents. See http://open.controltier.org/Workbench/Docs/reference/project-v10.html
2) You can also use the "Register" command to create objects from a script, presumably driven by a data file.
I can help direct you to the best approach if you can provide a little more information about the kind of data you want to generate and from what existing source.
Thanks

Hi jojy,
The installer creates a file-based authentication config. Users are defined in: $JETTY_HOME/etc/realm.properties
The default login/password is default/default.
Also, I encourage your subscribing to the Google group http://groups.google.com/group/controltier where we can assist you further.
Thanks
