A system for intelligently parameterizing and configuring a file is provided.
The
system includes a parameterizing tool that facilitates identifying items to be
parameterized. The parameterizing tool also facilitates creating code (e.g., XML
elements and/or attributes) that stores information associated with the parameterized
item. The system also includes a configuration tool that facilitates making configuration
choices for the parameterized item. The system also includes a merge tool that
facilitates creating a configured file based on the original file, the stored information
concerning the parameterized item, and the configuration choices for the parameterized item.
