public abstract class CatalogTargetProcessorBase extends RequestedCatalogTarget
Provides the base class for connector code that processes a single catalog target. When converting an integration connector implementation that does not support catalog targets to one that does, move the core working code into a subclass of this class and implement CatalogTargetIntegrator (and optionally CatalogTargetChangeListener if you need notifications. Ensure you override the getNewRequestedCatalogTargetSkeleton method in CatalogTargetIntegrator to return a new instance of your CatalogTargetProcessorBase class.

      public abstract void refresh() throws org.odpi.openmetadata.frameworks.connectors.ffdc.ConnectorCheckedException
      Requests that the connector does a comparison of the metadata in the third party technology and open metadata repositories. Refresh is called when the integration connector first starts and then at intervals defined in the connector's configuration as well as any external REST API calls to explicitly refresh the connector.
      Throws:
      org.odpi.openmetadata.frameworks.connectors.ffdc.ConnectorCheckedException - there is a problem with the connector. It is not able to refresh the metadata.
