Class GlobalProperty

java.lang.Object

org.openmrs.BaseOpenmrsObject

org.openmrs.GlobalProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, CustomValueDescriptor, SingleCustomValue<GlobalProperty>, OpenmrsObject

public class GlobalProperty
extends BaseOpenmrsObject
implements CustomValueDescriptor, SingleCustomValue<GlobalProperty>

Global properties are simple key-value pairs persisted in the database GPs can be thought of as something similar to environment variables used in operating systems.
