brand.properties Reference

Overview​

Datalogic JavaPOS API provides the ability to perform custom branding using the brand.properties file. This plain-text file contains key / value pairs containing configuration for branding specific information.

This file must appear in the current working directory of the application utilizing the Datalogic JavaPOS API in order to function properly. If this file does not appear, a warning is logged and default branding configuration is used.

Reference​

Each available property is discussed in the following sections.

BrandedProduct​

  • Default: DLSJavaPOS

The BrandedProduct property assigns the value to use when a Branded product name is normally logged or otherwise shown.

The value here is used to create the Device Service Version as reported in logging.

BrandingName​

  • Default: Datalogic ADC

The BrandingName property assigns the value to use when a Branded company name is normally logged or otherwise shown.

BrandingPrefix​

  • Default: dls
