Important Notes

Be sure to read the following information before trying to write custom resource adapters for Identity Manager:

• Do not create custom adapters in the com.waveset.adapter package. Instead, create custom adapters in a customer-specific package to be sure the adapter uses package-level classes and methods that are included in the supported public API. For example, use com.customer_name.adapter.

  Also, all package names must be lowercase.

• Do not use import .*. Although Java supports this mechanism, using import .* is generally considered bad practice because this mechanism

  • Obscures the actual location of referenced classes to readers

  • Can result in incorrect or ambiguous references (such as compiler errors) in certain situations following internal refactoring

  Instead, insert an explicit import statement for every referenced class or interface.
