Project Configurations

A project configuration is an XML document that governs specific runtime properties of a project, including stream URI bindings, adapter properties, parameter values, and advanced deployment options.

Project configuration files are created and edited separately from the project they are attached to, and are identified by their .ccr file extension. View and edit project configuration files in the project explorer view in the SAP ESP Authoring perspective.

Configuration files maintain all runtime properties outside the CCL. Thus, you can maintain CCL and CCX files under version control, while varying runtime properties. This lets you move a project from a test environment to a production environment without modifying the CCL and CCX files.

By default, when you create a new project, ESP also creates a new project configuration file. One project may have multiple configuration files attached to it, so you can manually create new project configurations. However, opening your project using SAP Event Stream Processor Studio only deploys the original CCR file created with the project, and this CCR file has the same name as the CCX file. To deploy your project with a separate CCR file, launch the project using the streamingclusteradmin utility from the command line. For more information on how to add and run projects from the command line, see streamingclusteradmin in Command Line Mode in SAP Event Stream Processor: Utilities Guide.
