The wsini.ini File

This topic provides an introduction to the wsini.ini file, which configures the Window Server.

You can use the parameters in the wsini.ini file to configure the emulator and the shell running on a target phone for debugging or test purposes. For example, you can specify parameters to turn on Window Server logging in order to log all Window Server events. This is useful for debugging Window Server client applications. Window Server logging is controlled by parameters in the wsini.ini file. Other wsini.ini settings control the choice of shell, the shell reboot behavior, and configure screens and plug-ins.

On a multi-screen device, you can specify the screen-specific parameters separately for each screen. Each screen can have several modes (such as portrait and landscape). For each mode you can specify a variety of parameters, such as scaling and the origin from which all top-level windows are positioned.
