Logout button on FW 2.2.0 Products (CCB and RMB)

A Single fix has been released on FW 2.2.0 post SP10 that provides a logout button both in a fusion and non fusion look and feel environment. If you already have FW 2.2.0 SP10 you will need to only download the patch # 11078069 (Feb 15 2011) from my oracle support and the pre-req patch #10050457 (Feb 3rd 2011). The patch also has a Database (SQL) portion.

After installing the pre-req and the patch, you will need to add the following to the spl.properties file for the on-line app i.e. root.

The line is :
spl.runtime.showlogout=true

I added this to file ccb.properties.include since I recently have to change this to add the fusion look and feel.
Please note that this logout button also works in a non-fusion environment too.
In FW 4.x products this logout button is already included.
