[SOLVED] CCM Service component development

RTC supports a client (library) calling a server side service. they marshall all the parameters and the results.

the 'interface' is the api definition.

the client needs to 'call it' and the server needs to 'implement it'

so you build two jar files..

interface and client code
and
interface and server service code

you also have some client application, that uses the client library to get data from the server, thru the service interface definition.

I have created my own services..

these require 3 parts

interface
service implemention
client implementation
<code>
here is my interface definition

public interface IRepositoryFileService
{   

    public String getSpecialVolumePrefix();

    public int getSpecialFileSize();
   
    public Object getServerProperty(String id);

}

here is the top of my implemention
public class RepositoryFileService extends AbstractService implements IRepositoryFileService

here is the xml in plugin.xml for the serer side
   <extension point="com.ibm.team.repository.service.serviceProvider">
           <serviceProvider
             componentId="com.xx.remoterepository"
            implementationClass="com.xx.repository.service.RepositoryFileService">
                   <provides>
                    <providedService interface="com.xx.repository.service.IRepositoryFileService"/>
                   </provides>
                   <prerequisites>
                   <requiredService
                         interface="com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.IRepositoryRemoteService">
                   </requiredService>                          
               </serviceProvider>
   </extension>

on the client side, I wanted to use the client interface (getClientLibrary)
make an interface
public interface IFileParmClient
{
    Object getProperty(String id );
    String getSpecialVolumePrefix();
    int getSpecialFileSize();
}

make a class that implements it
public final class FileParmClient implements IFileParmClient{
}

create the client library factory

public class FileParmClientLibraryFactory extends ClientLibraryFactory {
    @Override
    public Object createClientLibrary(IClientLibraryContext context) {
        return new FileParmClient(context);
    }
}

---- using this client interface (this is another service class, which has a simpler sample)
                    ISynchParmClient p= getVarService();
                    if(p!=null)
                    {
                        System.out.println("calling to get parms");
                        Varlist = (String)p.getProperty("sfdc.fieldstosynch");
                        System.out.println("Varlist='"+Varlist+"'");
                    }
                    else
                        System.out.println("unable to locate parms service");
}
      private static ISynchParmClient IVarService=null;
      private static ISynchParmClient getVarService()
      {
          if(IVarService==null)
              IVarService=(ISynchParmClient)getRepository().getClientLibrary(ISynchParmClient.class);
          if(IVarService==null)
              System.out.println("parm client get library failed");   
          return IVarService;
      }
</code>

my services do NOT show in the active service list however.

their parameters DO show in the list of config properties in the advanced server admin panel.

 Thanks a lot, one more time sam.
