Unique Id
The Unique Id interface can be used to uniquely identify event points:
/**
* Every monitorable component needs to defines the event points.
* Each event point defines
* an event and the data/payload associated with that event. The EventPoint is
* used to fire monitoring events.
* The client of an event point needs to know the payload of the events.h
*/
public interface AdapterContext
{
public String getUniqueId();
}
Example of the schema definition files
1.
Monitorable element schema (.mes file):
Monitorable element schema can be used to define element types that can be
logged into the CEI database (Polling, InboundEventDelivery, Outbound etc)
and it can also define natures that are available for each element type (entry,
exit, failed, polling etc).
