Understanding Sun Master Index Processing (Repository)

Dynamic OTD Methods

When you generate a master index project, a method OTD is created that contains Java methods to help you define how records are processed into the master index database from external systems. Like the dynamic object classes, these methods are based on the object structure. They rely on the dynamic object classes to create the objects in the master index application and to define and retrieve field values for those objects. Regenerating the master index application updates the methods to reflect any changes to the object structure.
