"Features" vs "Product Properties"
Hi John & all,
For my benefit so as for others, can you please correct/complete my understanding:
- both store information to influence software behaviours & can be set in the web command line
- "Features" are only bools, while "Product Properties" have other types
- "Features" are limited to 16, while "Product Properties" not
- when passed to the users, "Features" are embedded in the key, while "Product Properties" are in a separate file
correct ? other important aspect or security I missed ?

John,
Thank you, that link is more info than I have found so far. So "Product Properties" is what I want, not "feature". Please tell me where I can get information explaining this type of thing. I found this forum entry after two weeks of digging on your website. I can't afford to dig much longer.
