Description
|
<configform synchronous="true|false"> ... </configform>
|
[required] The root element of the adapter configuration. This parameter specifies the adapter execution mode—synchronous or asynchronous.
|
<block title="title" description="description" hidden="true|false">
|
[required] Defines a block of adapter parameters. One or more blocks can be defined in a ConfigForm.
Grouping of the parameters in a block is useful for several purposes:
Visual grouping of the parameters later in the MapConfigurator GUI.
Defining a group of parameters as "hidden", not visible from the MapConfigurator GUI.
The "title" [required] attribute is used solely for visual purposes, to group the contained properties in a labeled block.
The "description" [optional] attribute is not used in the default GUI, but may be used in extended GUI versions.
The "hidden" [optional] attribute defines the visibility of all the parameters in the block. When this parameter is not specified, the value is taken as "true".
|
<param name="name" access="I|O|IO|HIDDEN| PASSWORD" description="description" type="java_type" value="default_value"/>
|
[required] Each block contains one or more adapter parameters. The parameters represent adapter inputs, outputs and configuration values.
The "name" [required] attribute defines parameter's name.
The "access" [required] attribute defines how the parameter is to be used:
I – adapter input
O – adapter output
IO – input/output
HIDDEN – hidden parameter (for example a configuration constant)
PASSWORD - the same as an IO field, except that it is displayed as a password field.
The "description" [optional] attribute can be used by the MapConfigurator GUI to display short description or help message about the parameter.
The "type" [optional] attribute is used by the mapper to specify the Java data type of the parameter. When this parameter is not specified, the type is assumed as "java.lang.String".
The "value" [optional] attribute gives the default value of the parameter.
