  • The BASIS configuration file must contain at least two global strings: DICTIONARY and DATA:

  • The DICTIONARY value must point to the physical location of the BASIS data dictionary files. To resolve the location of the file paths defined in the dictionary, it is often necessary to establish a global path. If the data dictionary uses global strings (i.e., literals enclosed in parentheses) to define file paths, then these global strings must be defined in this configuration file.

  • The DATA value must point to the physical location of the data files for the data described in the data dictionary resides.
