The initiator-config element specifies the configuration info for a protocol-specific connection initiator. A connection initiator allows a Coherence*Extend client to connect to a cluster (via a connection acceptor) and use the clustered services offered by the cluster without having to first join the cluster.
The initiator-config element must contain exactly one protocol-specific connection initiator configuration element (either jms-initiator or tcp-initiator).
The following table describes the elements you can define within the initiator-config element.
| Element | Required/Optional | Description |
|---|---|---|
| <jms-initiator> | Optional | Specifies the configuration info for a connection initiator that connects to the cluster over JMS. |
| <tcp-initiator> | Optional | Specifies the configuration info for a connection initiator that connects to the cluster over TCP/IP. |
| <outgoing-message-handler> | Optional | Specifies the configuration info used by the connection initiator to detect dropped client-to-cluster connections. |
| <use-filters> | Optional | Contains the list of filter
names to be used by this connection initiator. For example, specifying use-filter as follows <use-filters> <filter-name>gzip</filter-name> </use-filters> will activate gzip compression for all network messages, which can help substantially with WAN and low-bandwidth networks. |
| <serializer> | Optional | Specifies the class configuration info for a Serializer implementation used by the connection initiator to serialize and deserialize user types.
For example, the following configures a ConfigurablePofContext that uses the my-pof-types.xml POF type configuration file to deserialize user types to and from a POF stream: <serializer> <class-name>com.tangosol.io.pof.ConfigurablePofContext</class-name> <init-params> <init-param> <param-type>string</param-type> <param-value>my-pof-types.xml</param-value> </init-param> </init-params> </serializer> |
