- The JADE Tutorials.
These provide a step by step guide to using configuring and running JADE and an example configuration file that can be downloaded and used together with our demo server to get you up and running. Tutorial examples are designed to use our online demo server and can therefore be tested with minimal configuration work. A configuration file is available for download to help you get the tutorials running as quickly as possible. - An Example JADE settings file with profiles

Dependencies and conflicts between configuration elements are avoided through the use of an XSD schema.
An We have written an XML editor is available that will simplify the creation and validation of schema-compatible file transfer configurations.
The basic principles behind the organization of the schema and parameters will be described in this document.

- Settings file configuration
Parameters such as host, protocol, user, password and dir (directory) are usually grouped separately in the settings file configuration according to whether they apply to the transfer source or target.
This usually has no functional meaning (the files are processed from top to bottom) and is partly simply for convenience (grouping parameters together makes them easier to find) and partly to allow their reuse in the form of so-called profile fragments if required.Status colour Yellow title REwrite - XML configuration
- Parameters are divided up between profile and fragment branches. (Note that these expressions are defined differently to elements with the same names in the settings file configuration with the same names.)
- authentication and connection parameters (Account & Password and Hostname & Port respectively) and the protocol (defined through the use of FTP) are part of the Fragments branch of the configuration.
- the operation (copy) and the source and target file paths (FilePath and LocalTarget respectively) are specified in the Profiles branch.
- the CopySourceFragmentRef element refers to the FTPFragment specified in the Fragments branch
- The division between Fragments and Profiles branches allows the reuse of elements whilst working within the strict hierarchical structure of XML.
- The use of a reference in the Profiles branch (in the example, using the CopySourceFragmentRef element) to specify the authentication and connection parameters in the Profiles branch allows any number of Profiles elements to be defined and specified as required.
- Parameters are divided up between profile and fragment branches. (Note that these expressions are defined differently to elements with the same names in the settings file configuration with the same names.)
