Creating Event Aliases

An event alias is a template that you can use to create commonly occurring events. Event aliases are created in the Event Aliases list under Runtime Events Administration.

Event aliases consist of a meaningful name and the minimum set of objects that define an event: Object Type, Object Name, Event, and Subevent. When you pick an event alias in the Name field of the Events form, the fields for the objects that define the event are automatically completed.

To create an event alias

  1. Navigate to Site Map > Runtime Events Administration > Event Aliases.
  2. Add a new record, then fill in the necessary fields.

    3. Field
    Description
    Name
    Provide a useful name for the event alias.
    Object Type
    Required. Select from the drop-down list:
    • Application
    • BusComp
    • Applet
    Object Name
    The name of the object to which the event occurs.
    Event
    Required. Select from the drop-down list. The choices depend on which object type you choose.
    Subevent
    Fill in Subevent only when the object type is BusComp or Applet and the event is InvokeMethod. In this case, the subevent is the name of the method to be monitored.
