The values you enter in the wizard, Configuration Editor or directly in the XML files define how other components of the master index application are generated, such as the database scripts, the Master Index Data Manager, and the dynamic Java API. This section provides an overview of how the values you enter correspond to the runtime environment.
From XML to the Database
The master index database is created using a standard MySQL, Oracle or SQL Server database and a database script generated directly from object.xml. Additional scripts are created based on any user codes or menu lists you defined for the fields in the object structure. Running the database scripts against the database creates the tables necessary for your master index application and also creates startup data, such as external system information, processing codes, and so on.
From XML to the Master Index Data Manager
Based on information you specify in the wizard or Configuration Editor, midm.xml is generated to define the appearance of the Master Index Data Manager (MIDM) . This file defines the fields and appearance of the MIDM and also specifies the searches used by the MIDM. The available search types are defined in query.xml. You can customize many features of the MIDM, including the following.
The fields that appear on the MIDM pages
The field attributes, such as a display name, order of appearance, length, type, data format, and so on
The types of searches that can be performed and the fields available for each type
The appearance of search results lists
The location of the fields on all windows
From XML to the EJB
When you generate the master index application, two additional projects are created, an EJB project and a web application project. The EJB project includes several Java classes that are common to all master index applications as well as a set of custom classes that are specific to the type of object you are indexing. These are based on object.xml. You can use these methods to specify how data is processed into the database. You can also call these methods from Business Processes.
From XML to the Runtime Environment
The information you specify in the master index configuration files is read at runtime when the domain is started. The only exception is object.xml, which is stored only as a record of the object structure. You can modify the configuration files after moving to production; however, for the changes to take effect, you must regenerate the application and then rebuild and redeploy the project to apply the changes to the server. You also need to restart the MIDM and any Adapters or Binding Components connected to the application for the changes to take effect. Use caution when modifying these files; changing these files after moving to production might result in loss of data integrity or unexpected weighting and matching results.
