WS-AppServer facilitates creating managed components under its default sub-component called 'applications'. The JMX functionality in WS-AppServer helps System Administrators to remotely monitor the WS-AppServer SOAP configuration and various managed components of different WS-AppServer-based applications.

The following Web service operation is used for creating the managed component in the BsfConnector class.

/**
 * Creates a nested managed application sub-component inside
 * 'Applications' sub-component.
 * @param type  The type of sub-component. E.g. dbConnectionPool,
 * soapConnector, ldapCache, etc.
 * @param description  The description of the sub-component
 * @param componentImpl The object actually implementing the
 * sub-component
 *
 * @return  The created managed application sub-component object.
 */

public IManagedComponent createManagedApplicationComponent(String type, ILocalizableString description, Object componentImpl)

The sub-components are registered internally, which are handled by WS-AppServer. The following code is used for registering the WS-AppServer application sub-component.

In the following example,

• sales is a type of component and represents the application
• localizedMessage is an object implementing the ILocalizableString interface
• object is the object implementing the sub-component
  

  import com.cordys.cpc.bsf.connector.BsfConnector;
  import com.cordys.cpc.bsf.connector.IOnBsfConnector;
  
  public class Initializer implements IOnBsfConnector
  {
         public void onOpenConnector(BsfConnector connector)
         {
                //Application specific code
                //To create a managed component for the application
                connector.createManagedApplicationComponent("sales",Messages.APPLICATION_DESC, object)
         }
  }
