Configuring a viewer cache

To display structures in the embedded viewer, you must create the corresponding JT file and store it in the Teamcenter file system. To optimize performance, Teamcenter saves the JT file in a cache directory. Whenever you view the image after the initial request, Teamcenter obtains the file from the cache directory, rather than recopying it from the Teamcenter file system. By default, the cache directory is the Java system temporary directory of the workstation, but you can specify a different cache directory using the PortalViewer_Cache property. Typically, the cache directory is set to a local directory, but it can be set to a shared directory (for example, an NFS mounted directory) so that multiple users can share the same set of cached JT files.
