org.pentaho.di.core.KettleEnvironment

public class KettleEnvironment
extends Object

The KettleEnvironment class contains settings and properties for all of Kettle. Initialization of the environment is done by calling the init() method, which reads in properties file(s), registers plugins, etc. Initialization should be performed once at application startup; for example, Spoon's main() method calls KettleEnvironment.init() in order to prepare the environment for usage by Spoon.
