Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP11 Programmer's Guide

Load the New Tag into the Server

After creating the shared library that defines the new tag, you load the library into Sun Java System Web Server in the usual way for NSAPI plugins. That is, add the following directives to the configuration file magnus.conf

  1. Add an Init directive whose fn parameter is load-modules and whose shlib parameter is the shared library to load. For example, if you compiled your tag into the shared object install_dir /hello.so, it would be:

    Init funcs="mytag,mytag_init" shlib="install_dir/hello.so" fn="load-modules"

  2. Add another Init directive whose fn parameter is the initialization function in the shared library that uses shtml_add_tag to register the tag. For example:

    Init fn="mytag_init"
