LdrfCatalogPath

Summary

Obtains the full path for the location of the LonMark device

resource file catalog (ldrf.cat). You should not modify this

path because the resource file catalog should always be

stored in the LonWorks/Types folder. T

he LdrfCatalogPath

property points this path by default; therefore, you should

not write to this property under any circumstances.

See the LonMark Resource File Catalog Help and the Device

Resource File Developers Guide
Setting this property in the ObjectServer

object overrides the

value in the System object. This must be done by a Local

client application before you call the ObjectServer object's

Open method. However, you should not write to this

property. If you do write to the LdrfCatalogPath property,

leave the standard resource files in the LonWorks/Types

folder, and then create a copy of the standard resource files

in the new folder referenced by the LdrfCatalogPath property
