    titlePredefined Platform Sections

    There are a few "special" section names that can be used for the different platforms. These will be associated with the Workers using the respective platform.

    Note

    The 'default' template is applied to all workers, regardless of operating system, and is inherited by every other template. So

    • [winnt]
    • [winnt] : default

    are equivalent.

    • [default]
    • [winnt]
    • [osx]
    • [linux]

    Example

    [linux]
    worker_cluster = /mylinuxboxes

    titleTemplate Inheritance

    The advantage of the macro file format is the use of template inheritance and value replacement. A section is allowed to "inherit" another section's key/value pairs. This can be accomplished by adding a colon and a space-delimited list of templates.

    Icon

    The qbwrk.conf file is read from top to bottom. A template can only inherit from an already-defined template that appears before it in the file.

    Example

    The section:

    [qube]
    key9 = value00

    [section]
    key = value
    key1 = value1

    [section2] : section
    key = value3

    [section3] : section2 qube

    evaluates to:

    [qube]
    key9 = value00

    [section]
    key = value
    key1 = value1

    [section2]
    key = value3
    key1 = value1

    [section3]
    key = value3
    key1 = value1
    key9 = value00

     

     

    ...

    The following parameters are only settable locally on the Worker as they determine where the Qube! installation is located, the hostname of the Supervisor, and the filtering field for network communication. They will not have any effect when used in the qbwrk.conf file.
