Data extractor handler

For any archiving operation a Data Extractor handler is mandatory. It extracts process instances and/or events from BPM Process Store tables of Business Process Server database. The data qualified for extraction is decided by the filter parameters provided by the user. The data extracted by Data Extractor is passed to any registered handlers that may be specified by the user to perform data cleansing or transformation. These handlers for data transformation or purging are optional. They accept the Data Object created by Data Extractor.
Data Extractor handler can be classified into following types:
*Handler extracting entire process instance or event data (ProcessDataExtractor)
*Handler extracting only the process instance id (ProcessDataIdExtractor)
You cannot simultaneously use both the above mentioned Data Extractors.
* ProcessDataExtractor: Extracting entire data
* ProcessDataIdExtractor: Extracting only Id values
