flow-config.xml file for the UI framework

The flow-config.xml file is the core configuration file for the framework. The flow-config.xml file needs to be present in the class path of your Web application.

You can control the navigation by using the flow-config.xml file available under the directory PRODUCT_INSTALLED_DIR/etc/default. The contents of the XML file is governed through the flow-config.xsd file located in the same location as the flow-config.xml file. Here is the sample code from the flow-config.xml file:

<flow-config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="flow-config.xsd">
	<global-error page="/utils/error.jsp"/>
	<global-login page="/utils/enterLogin.jsp"/>
