Interface SAPAdapterResources

public interface SAPAdapterResources

The methods of this interface are intended to be invoked by SAP Adapters within the SAP Adapter Framework. In the future adapters will have access to the methods defined in Sun's JCA 1.5 specification. Until that specification becomes final and is implemented in the server adapters can use this class, which should partially fulfill the server contract required in the specification by exposing some low level application server features to the resource adapter writers. Access to an instance of an implementation of this class should be retrieved via JNDI, using the lookup name "SAPAdapterResources". For example: InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(); SAPAdapterResources resources = (SAPAdapterResources)ctx.lookup("SAPAdapterResources"); resources.startRunnable(myRunnable); This fragment starts the execution of a thread that is supplied by the adapter developer (as long as it implements the Runnable interface.
