Click ComponentsByModule to see the components within a particular category and module. A category describes a component’s particular function, such as caching or logging. ATG Control Center uses the following icons to represent the different types of components within each category:
Icon | ComponentType |
---|---|
ATG Servlet Bean | |
Form Handler | |
Database Connection Pool | |
Profile | |
Profile Group | |
Repository | |
SQL Query | |
Sensor | |
Targeter | |
Browser Type | |
Data Listener | |
Log Listener | |
Pipeline Servlet | |
Generic component |
A module is a higher level grouping of components based on general functionality. For example, all components of the Dynamo Application Framework (DAF) are packaged together in the Dynamo module. The standard module Local contains custom components that you create in the ATG Control Center, or by writing .properties
files by hand. If your ATG software includes solutions in addition to the ATG Adaptive Scenario Engine, the Components window displays these modules too.
In Components By Module view, the Components window displays three panels:
Modules
Categories
Components
Filtering components list
To see all Nucleus components, select [allmodules] and [allcategories]. You can also filter the list of components by selecting a specific module and category. For example, if you select the Dynamo module and Caching category, the Components list contains Dynamo’s two standard caching components: FileCache
and LRUByteCache
. When you select a component from this list, the information panel at the bottom of the Components window displays the component’s full path name, class, scope and description. For example:
/atg/dynamo/servlet/pipeline/FileCache Class: atg.service.filecache.FileCache Scope: global Description: A cache of file date by file name
To get more detailed information about a component, opening it in the Component Editor: double-click on the component or choose File | Open Component. For more information about the Component Editor and configuring Nucleus components, see Configuring Nucleus Components.
