Adding adapters

To add a new adapter, you must manually add it to the group of adapters in the instance_name.xml configuration file. To add a new adapter, do the following:

  1. Open the instance_name.xml configuration file.
  2. Locate the HttpAdapters XML node and add XML syntax similar to the following to define your adapter:

    <HttpAdapter    enabled="true/false"     deviceFormatType="--device format--"     deviceFormatId="#"     name="--name--"     factoryClassname="-- class implementing HttpAdapterFactory --">

    < --- free range format of XML to contain adapter configuration information -->
    

Note: The preceding example would be used to add a program adapter. To add a different type of adapter, modify the class implementation accordingly. In the example, HttpAdapterFactory is the class implementation.
