16 XCOMM Tool Type Scope Filetypes ExecHost Invocation
18 XCOMM The following tools are visible to users.
20 FILEMGR TOOL NET * %Local% CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP/bin/dtfile -noview
21 HELPMGR TOOL NET * %Local% dthelp -unmapped
22 STYLEMGR COMMAND NET * %Local% CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP/bin/dtstyle
23 ANNOTATOR TOOL NET * %Local% CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP/bin/dtannotator
24 DTPAD TOOL NET * %Local% CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP/bin/dtpad -server
26 XCOMM The following tools are special cases that should never be auto-started
27 XCOMM due to a request message. If they were not started during the normal
28 XCOMM DT start-up, requests for them should be ignored instead of causing
29 XCOMM them to be started. This is because starting them in the middle of
30 XCOMM a session can cause havoc.
32 XCOMM To keep them from being auto-started, a "fake" exec-string of /bin/true
33 XCOMM is used. One side-effect of this is that if these tools aren't running,
34 XCOMM requests messages to them will be held forever in the Execution Manger.
35 XCOMM This is a memory leak, though it is expected to be quite small.
37 XCOMM The alternative solution of not listing these tools at all cannot be
38 XCOMM used because the Softbench Tool Manager will produce warning dialog
39 XCOMM boxes for unknown tools.
41 SESSIONMGR TOOL NET * %Local% /bin/true
