ICS.AppEvent

Creates an event that triggers a registered application logic.

Syntax

public boolean 
AppEvent(String name, 
         String guid, 
         String times,
         FTValList params)

Parameters

name

Name to register the event under. Do not use special characters in event name, such as "{", "*", or "&".

guid

The name of the servlet that is called when the event is triggered.

times

Time at which the event will be triggered. Use the format:

  hh:mm:ss W/DD/MM

where:

• hh (hour): 0 - 23
• mm (minute): 0 - 59
• ss (second): 0 - 59
• W (day of the week): 0 - 6 with 0 = Sunday.
• DD (day of the month): 1 - 31
• MM (month): 1 - 12

For each of these fields, it is valid to use an asterisk (all legal values) or a list of elements separated by commas. A value can be one or more numbers separated by a minus sign indicating an inclusive range. For example:

  2, 5 - 7:0:0 1/*/* 
 

means the event is triggered at 2 a.m., 5 a.m., 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. every Monday.

Specify days by two fields: day of the month (DD) and day of the week (W). If both are specified, both take effect. For example, 1:0:0 1/15/* means the event is triggered at 1 a.m. every Monday, as well as on the fifteenth of each month. To specify days by only one field, set the other field to *.

params

A list of name/value pairs that are passed to the servlet. May be null.

Description

The AppEvent method creates an event that triggers a registered application logic.

Returns

Boolean value indicating success or failure.

Error Numbers

Use GetErrno to view the error.

Possible values of errno include:

Value	Description
-200	Failed to register event.
-201	Exception in event. (May appear as -200.)

 

Example

This example registers an event that will invoke the Sites application logic. The event will be triggered every day at 1:10 p.m. and invoke Sites to process the pagename API/Main. Note that the single parameter to this application logic is passed in the FTValList.

ics.ClearErrno();
FTValList params = new FTValList()
params.setValString( "pagename" , "API/Main" );
String csGUID = "ContentServer";
ics.AppEvent( "AppEvent" , csGUID , 
              "13:10:00 */*/*" , params );
int errs = ics.GetErrno();
