Configuring the Named Object

HydraExpress Components : Web Service Development Guide : PART IV Extending your Applications : Named Objects : Creating and Using Custom Objects : Configuring the Named Object

The string object is configured in the objects.xml file. The configuration can contain any number of initialization parameters.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

...

<naming-obj>

<naming-name>MyString</naming-name> 1

<naming-class>string.createMyString</naming-class> 2

</naming-obj>

<init-param>

<param-name>aString</param-name> 3

<param-value>It might be Wednesday</param-value> 4

</init-param>

...

</objects>

//1 Labels the object so the service can locate it.

//2 Names the shared library (string) and create method (createMyString) to be used to instantiate the object.

//3 Defines a parameter called aString.

//4 Defines a value for the parameter.

At HydraExpress Agent startup, the initialization parameters defined for the named object are placed into an rwsf::Config object, which is passed to the init() method for the named object.
