Class ConnectorTypeProperties

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable
    public class ConnectorTypeProperties
extends ReferenceableProperties
    The ConnectorTypeProperties describe the implementation details of a particular type of connector. The properties for a connector type are defined in model 0201. They include:
    • guid - Globally unique identifier for the connector type.
    • qualifiedName - The official (unique) name for the connector type. This is often defined by the IT systems management organization and should be used (when available) on audit logs and error messages.
    • displayName - A consumable name for the connector type. Often a shortened form of the qualifiedName for use on user interfaces and messages. The displayName should be only be used for audit logs and error messages if the qualifiedName is not set.
    • description - A full description of the connector type covering details of the assets it connects to along with usage and versioning information.
    • supportedAssetTypeName - the type of asset that the connector implementation supports.
    • expectedDataFormat - the format of the data that the connector supports - null for "any".
    • connectorProviderClassName - The connector provider is the factory for a particular type of connector. This property defines the class name for the connector provider that the Connector Broker should use to request new connector instances.
    • connectorFrameworkName - name of the connector framework that the connector implements - default Open Connector Framework (OCF).
    • connectorInterfaceLanguage - the language that the connector is implemented in - default Java.
    • connectorInterfaces - list of interfaces that the connector supports.
    • targetTechnologySource - the organization that supplies the target technology that the connector implementation connects to.
    • targetTechnologyName - the name of the target technology that the connector implementation connects to.
    • targetTechnologyInterfaces - the names of the interfaces in the target technology that the connector calls.
    • targetTechnologyVersions - the versions of the target technology that the connector supports.
    • recognizedAdditionalProperties - these are the Connection additional properties recognized by the connector implementation
    • recognizedConfigurationProperties - these are the Connection configuration properties recognized by the connector implementation
    • recognizedSecuredProperties - these are the Connection secured properties recognized by the connector implementation
    • additionalProperties - Any additional properties that the connector provider needs to know in order to create connector instances.
    The connectorTypeProperties class is simply used to cache the properties for an connector type. It is used by other classes to exchange this information between a metadata repository and a consumer.
