ABSTRACT:
A system and method for configuring an application is provided. Specifically, calls are made from a configuration tool to entry points in a configuration interface, which is implemented as part of the application. In response to the calls, configuration data is modified. Thus, the application is configured from a configuration tool without having to reverse engineer the application's configuration.
