[Alert_collaboration] [EXTERNAL] ALERT yaml flags

[mhattawy@odu.edu]

Hello Eric,
Regarding
   simulation    = false;
   findingMethod = "distance";

They are hardcoded in the AHDCEngine. The engine must be edited to read
them from the yam file. One has to add something like the following two
lines in the AHDCEngine and push a merge request, and then we will need a
new coatjava release.
         simulation = this.getEngineConfigString("simulation");
         findingMethod = this.getEngineConfigString("findingMethod");

Mohammad.
