4 Component Configuration Schema

This appendix provides a reference to the elements of the Oracle/Middleware/my_oep/oep/wlevs_application_config.xsd schema. This schema is behind the XML files you use to configure Oracle Stream Explorer application components such as adapters, channels, caching systems, and event beans.

See Developing Applications for Event Processing with Oracle Stream Explorer for information about how to use the elements described in this chapter.

This appendix includes the following sections:

4.1 accept-backlog

Use this element to define the maximum number of pending connections allowed on a socket. This element is only applicable in a netio element. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the accept-backlog element in the component configuration file:

<netio> <provider-name>providerCache</provider-name>
        <num-threads>1000</num-threads>
        <accept-backlog>50</accept-backlog>
</netio>

4.2 active

Use the active element to turn event tracing on and off. When true, event tracing is on. When false, event tracing is off. When the active element value is set to false, the channel-name value is ignored. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to configure a processor for event tracing. The trace-parameters element's active child element specifies that tracing is on, while the channel-name element specifies the HTTP pub-sub channel to which traced elements should be sent.

<processor>
    <name>FindCrossRates</name>
    <trace-parameters>
        <active>true</active>
        <channel-name>/NonClusteredServer/fx/FindCrossRates/output</channel-name>
    </trace-parameters>
    <rules>
        <!-- Query rules omitted. -->
    </rules>
</processor>

4.3 adapter

Use this element to define a custom adapter component. This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

See also the following specialized adapter elements: http-pub-sub-adapter, jms-adapter, edn-adapter, csv-adapter, obr-adapter, quickfix-adapter, or rmi-adapter elements.

The following example shows how to use the adapter element in the component configuration file. In the example, the adapter's unique identifier is trackdata.

<adapter>
    <name>trackdata</name>
    <symbols>
        <symbol>BEAS</symbol>
        <symbol>IBM</symbol>
    </symbols>
 </adapter>

The adapter component configuration element supports the following child elements and has no attributes:

4.4 amount

Use this element to define the time duration for a diagnostic profile. The amount element has no child elements and no attributes.

This element can be used with any of the following elements:

        </max-latency>
    </profile>
</diagnostic-profiles>

4.5 append

Use the append element with a CSV outbound adapter to specify whether event data should be appended to the output CSV file if it exists. When true, Oracle Stream Explorer appends data to an existing CSV output file. When false, Oracle Stream Explorer creates a new CSV file or overwrites an existing CSV file of the same name. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows the assembly file entry for the StockTradeCSVOutboundAdapter. The append element value is false.

<wlevs:adapter id="StockTradeCSVOutboundAdapter" provider="csv-outbound">
    <wlevs:instance-property name="eventType" value="TradeEvent"/>
    <wlevs:instance-property name="outputFile"
        value="/scratch/mpawlan/oep9-19/oep/utils/load-generator/StockData.csv"/>
    <wlevs:instance-property name="append" value="false"/>
</wlevs:adapter>

4.6 application

Use this element to define the type of application Oracle Stream Explorer server applies to a foreign stage. In a diagnostic profile, this element always has a value of diagnostic. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

</diagnostic-profiles>

4.9 bindings (jms-adapter)

In an Oracle Stream Explorer application, you can use the com.oracle.cep.cluster.hagroups.ActiveActiveGroupBean class to partition an incoming JMS stream with notification groups. Then, use the jms-adapter bindings element to associate a notification group with a particular message-selector value.

This element has the group-binding child element and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the bindings element in the component configuration file. When an application with this configuration deploys to a server and the server has a cluster element groups child element that contains ActiveActiveGroupBean_group1, the following happens:

  • The application processes events with an acctid property that is greater than 400.

  • The CONDITION parameter is defined as acctid > 400.

<jms-adapter>
    <name>JMSInboundAdapter</name>
    <event-type>StockTick</event-type>
    <jndi-provider-url>t3://ppurich-pc:7001</jndi-provider-url>
    <destination-jndi-name>./Topic1</destination-jndi-name>
    <user>weblogic</user>
    <password>weblogic1</password>
    <work-manager>JettyWorkManager</work-manager>
    <concurrent-consumers>1</concurrent-consumers>
    <session-transacted>true</session-transacted>
    <message-selector>${CONDITION}</message-selector>
    <bindings>
        <group-binding group-id="ActiveActiveGroupBean_group1">
            <param id="CONDITION">acctid > 400</param>
        </group-binding>
        <group-binding group-id="ActiveActiveGroupBean_group2">
            <param id="CONDITION">acctid BETWEEN 301 AND 400</param>
        </group-binding>
        <group-binding group-id="ActiveActiveGroupBean_group3">
            <param id="CONDITION">acctid BETWEEN 201 AND 300</param>
        </group-binding>
        <group-binding group-id="ActiveActiveGroupBean_group4">
            <param id="CONDITION">acctid <= 200</param>
        </group-binding>
     </bindings>
</jms-adapter>

4.10 bindings (processor)

Use the processor bindings element to define bindings for one or more parameterized Oracle CQL rules in a processor component. The bindings component configuration element has the binding child element and no attributes.

                from StockTick retain 5 events
                where stockSymbol=?
                having avg(price)  > ? or avg(price)  < ?
            ></rule>
        </rules>
        <bindings>
            <binding id="rule1">
                <params>BEAS,10.0,-10.0</params>
                <params id="IBM">IBM,5.0,5.0</params>
            </binding>
        </bindings>
</processor>

4.11 buffer-size

Use the buffer-size element to define the size of the internal store buffer that's used to temporarily hold asynchronous updates that need to be written to the store. Does not support dynamic updates. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the buffer-size element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>

        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.12 buffer-write-attempts

Use the buffer-write-attempts element to define the number of attempts that the user thread will make to write to the store buffer. The user thread is the thread that creates or updates a cache entry. If the user thread cannot write to the store buffer (all write attempts fail), it will invoke the store synchronously. This element may be changed dynamically.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the buffer-write-attempts element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-behind>
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
            <batch-size>100</batch-size>
            <buffer-size>100</buffer-size>
            <buffer-write-attempts>100</buffer-write-attempts>
            <buffer-write-timeout>100</buffer-write-timeout>
        </write-behind>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.13 buffer-write-timeout

Use the buffer-write-timeout element to define the time in milliseconds that the user thread will wait before aborting an attempt to write to the store buffer. The attempt to write to the store buffer fails only in case the buffer is full. After the time out, further attempts may be made to write to the buffer based on the value of buffer-write-attempts. This element may be changed dynamically.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the buffer-write-timeout element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-behind>
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
            <batch-size>100</batch-size>
            <buffer-size>100</buffer-size>
            <buffer-write-attempts>100</buffer-write-attempts>
            <buffer-write-timeout>100</buffer-write-timeout>
        </write-behind>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.14 cache

Use the cache element to define a cache for a component. A cache is a temporary storage area for events, created exclusively to improve the overall performance of your Oracle Stream Explorer application. A cache is not necessary for the application to function correctly. Oracle Stream Explorer applications can optionally publish or consume events to and from a cache to increase the availability of the events and increase the performance of their applications.

This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the cache element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>

        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-none/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.15 caching-system

Use the caching-element element to define an Oracle Stream Explorer local caching system component. A caching system refers to a configured instance of a caching implementation. A caching system defines a named set of configured caches as well as the configuration for remote communication if any of the caches are distributed across multiple machines.

This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the caching-system element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>

        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.16 channel

Use the channel element to define a channel component. An Oracle Stream Explorer application contains one or more channel components that represent the physical conduit through which events flow between other types of components, such as between adapters and processors, and between processors and event beans (business logic POJOs).

This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the channel element in the component configuration file. In the example, the channel's unique identifier is MatchOutputChannel.

<http-pub-sub-adapter>
    <name>localPublisher</name>
    <server-context-path>/pubsub</server-context-path>
    <channel>/channel2</channel>
</http-pub-sub-adapter>

4.18 channel-name

Use the channel-name element to specify the name of the channel onto which events are to be injected or to which traced events are to be sent. This element has no child elements and no attributes. When the value of the active element is false, the channel-name value is ignored.

The element value must be a path to the channel in the following form and begin with a slash:

  • Event tracing: /serverID/appID/stageID/output

  • Event injection: /serverID/appID/stageID/input

The following example shows how to configure a processor for event tracing. The trace-parameters element's active child element specifies that tracing is on, and the channel-name element specifies the HTTP pub-sub channel to which to send traced elements.

<processor>
    <name>FindCrossRates</name>
    <trace-parameters>
        <active>true</active>
        <channel-name>/NonClusteredServer/fx/FindCrossRates/output</channel-name>
    </trace-parameters>
    <rules>
        <!-- Query rules omitted. -->
    </rules>
</processor>

4.19 client-id

The following example shows how to use the coherence-cache-config element in the component configuration file:

<coherence-caching-system>
    <name>nativeCachingSystem</name>
    <coherence-cache-config>
        applications/cache_cql/coherence/coherence-cache-
    </coherence-cache-config></coherence-caching-system>

4.21 coherence-caching-system

Use the coherence-caching-system element to define an Oracle Coherence caching system component. A caching system refers to a configured instance of a caching implementation. A caching system defines a named set of configured caches as well as the configuration for remote communication if any of the caches are distributed across multiple machines.

                <stage>MonitorProcessor</stage>
                <direction>OUTBOUND</direction>
            </end-location>
        </max-latency>
    </profile>
</diagnostic-profiles>

4.24 concurrent-consumers

Use the concurrent-consumers element to define the number of consumers to create. Default value is 1. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

If you set this value to a number greater than one, be sure that your converter bean is thread-safe because the converter bean will be shared among the consumers. If the value of concurrent-consumers is greater than 1 and you want all the consumers to be run concurrently, then consider how you configure the work-manager you associate with this JMS adapter.

  • If the work-manager is shared with other components (such as other adapters and Jetty) then set the work-manager attribute max-threads-constraint greater than or equal to the concurrent-consumers setting.

  • If the work-manager is not shared (that is, it is dedicated to this inbound JMS adapter only) then set the work-manager attribute max-threads-constraint equal to the concurrent-consumers setting.

For more information, see work-manager.

The following example shows how to use the concurrent-consumers element in the component configuration file:

<jms-adapter>
    <name>jmsInbound-text</name>
    <connection-jndi-name>weblogic.jms.ConnectionFactory</connection-jndi-name>
    <destination-name>JMSServer-0/Module1!Queue1</destination-name>
    <user>weblogic</user>
    <password>weblogic</password>
    <work-manager>JettyWorkManager</work-manager>
    <concurrent-consumers>1</concurrent-consumers>
    <session-transacted>false</session-transacted>
</jms-adapter>

4.25 configuration

Use the configuration element to group key and value pairs. This element has the following child elements and no attributes:

The following example shows how to use the configuration, config-name, and config-value elements.

<quickfix-adapter>
    <name>quickfixAdpater</name>
    <event-type>MyConfigEvent</event-type>
    <default-session description="default configuration">
      ...
      <configuration description="identifier-message format">
        <config-name>BeginString</config-name>
        <config-value>FIXT.0.1</config-value>
      </configuration>
    </default-session>
    <session description="ordertracker configuration">
      <configuration description="identifier-acceptor">
        <config-name>SenderCompID</config-name>
        <config-value>QA</config-value>
      </configuration>
      <configuration description="identifier-initiator">
        <config-name>TargetCompID</config-name>
        <config-value>ORACLE</config-value>
      </configuration>
    </session>
</quickfix-adapter> 

4.26 config-name

Use the config-name element to specify the key name for a configuration setting. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

4.27 config-value

Use the config-value element to specify the value for a configuration setting. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

4.28 connection-jndi-name

Use the optional connection-jndi-name element to define a JNDI name of the JMS connection factory. Default value is weblogic.jms.ConnectionFactory for Oracle Stream Explorer server JMS.

<jms-adapter>
    <name>jmsInbound-text</name>
    <connection-jndi-name>weblogic.jms.ConnectionFactory</connection-jndi-name>
    <destination-name>JMSServer-0/Module1!Queue1</destination-name>
    <user>weblogic</user>
    <password>weblogic</password>
    <work-manager>JettyWorkManager</work-manager>
    <concurrent-consumers>1</concurrent-consumers>
    <session-transacted>false</session-transacted>
</jms-adapter>

The following example shows how to use the connection-jndi-name element in the component configuration file:

4.29 connection-encrypted-password

Use the connection-encrypted-password element to define the encrypted jms-adapter password that Oracle Stream Explorer uses when it acquires a connection to the JMS service provider. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

When Oracle Stream Explorer calls the createConnection method on the javax.jms.ConnectionFactory to create a connection to the JMS destination (JMS queue or topic), it uses the connection-user and connection-password or connection-encrypted-password element, if configured. Otherwise, Oracle Stream Explorer uses the user and password (or encrypted-password) elements. Use either connection-encrypted-password or connection-password but not both.

The following example shows how to use the connection-encrypted-password element in the component configuration file:

<http-pub-sub-adapter>

Note that the actual wait time will be slightly higher than the event interval because there is some associated overhead for thread handling. Therefore avoid very low event intervals.

The following code shows a CSV adapter with an event interval of 25 nanoseconds and an initial delay of 40 seconds. Possible units are nanoseconds, microseconds, milliseconds, and seconds.

  <csv-adapter>
    <name>csv-inbound-adapter</name>
    <event-interval units="nanoseconds">25</event-interval>
    <initial-delay units="seconds">40</initial-delay>
  </csv-adapter>

4.57 event-type

Use the event-type element to define the data contained in an event. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

Use the event-type element in the following parent elements:

  • http-pub-sub-adapter:

    • Publishing: Optional. For both local and remote HTTP pub-sub adapters for publishing, specify the fully qualified class name of the JavaBean event to limit the types of events that are published. Otherwise, all events sent to the HTTP pub-sub adapter are published.

    • Subscribing: Required. For both local and remote HTTP pub-sub adapters for subscribing, specify the fully qualified class name of the JavaBean to which incoming messages are mapped. At runtime, Oracle Stream Explorer uses the incoming key-value pairs in the message to map the message data to the specified event type.

    You must register this class in the EPN assembly file as a wlevs:event-type-repository element wlevs:class child element.

  • jms-adapter: Use the event-type element to specify an event type whose properties match the JMS message properties. Specify this child element only if you want Oracle Stream Explorer to automatically perform the conversion between JMS messages and events. If you have created your own custom converter bean, then do not specify this element.

  • record-parameters: Use the event-type element to specify an event that you want to record.

The value of the event-type element must be one of the event types you defined in your event type repository.

The following example shows how to use the event-type element in the component configuration file:

<record-parameters>
    <dataset-name>tuple1</dataset-name>
        <event-type-list>
            <event-type>TupleEvent1</event-type>
        </event-type-list>
        <provider-name>test-rdbms-provider</provider-name>
    <batch-size>1</batch-size>
    <batch-time-out>10</batch-time-out>
</record-parameters>

4.58 event-type-name

Use the event-type-name element to specify the name of an event type. An event type is a data structure that defines the data contained in an event.

 <rest-adapter>
    <name>httpInbound</name>
    <event-type-name>CallCenterActivity</event-type-name>
    <context-path>/testhttpadapter</context-path>
 </rest-adapter>
 <jaxb-mapper>
    <name>xmlMapperBean</name>
    <event-type-name>CallCenterActivity</event-type-name>
    <metadata>external_metadata_case1.xml</metadata>
 </jaxb-mapper>
 <csv-mapper>

        <write-none/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.60 fail-when-rejected

Use the fail-when-rejected element to specify whether an exception of type com.bea.wlevs.ede.api.EventProcessingException should be raised if the event queue is full when the offer time out expires. If set to false or not set at all, then the event is dropped rather than an exception raised. This configuration is only applicable for event queues whose max-size value is greater than 0. The default value is false. For more on setting the offer time out, see offer-timeout.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

In the following example, the channel is configured to raise an EventProcessingException if 15 seconds pass while the event queue is full.

<channel>
    <name>QueuedChannel</name>
    <max-size>1000</max-size>
    <max-threads>1</max-threads>
    <offer-timeout>15000000000</offer-timeout>
    <fail-when-rejected>true</fail-when-rejected>
</channel>

4.61 group-binding

Edit the component configuration file to add group-binding child elements to the jms-adapter element for the JMS inbound adapters. Add one group-binding element for each possible JMS message-selector value. For more information, see bindings (jms-adapter).

This element has the param child element and the group-id attribute. The group-id attribute is required, is type String, and is the name of a cluster element that groups child elements.

The following example shows how to use the group-binding element in the component configuration file:

        <group-binding group-id="ActiveActiveGroupBean_group4">
            <param id="CONDITION">acctid <= 200</param>
        </group-binding>
     </bindings>
</jms-adapter>

4.62 heartbeat

Use the heartbeat element to define a new heartbeat time out for a system-time stamped channel component. By default, the time out value is 100 milliseconds, which is 100,000,000 nanoseconds. This element has no child elements and no attributes. A heartbeat checks for the arrival of data on the channel every so many seconds

Oracle Stream Explorer generates a heartbeat on a system time stamped relation or stream channel when no data has arrived on the channel for more than the value for this setting.

The heartbeat child element applies to system-time stamped relations or streams only when no events arrive in the event channels that are feeding the processors and the processor has been configured with a statement that includes some temporal operator, such as a time-based window or a pattern matching with duration.

The following example shows how to use the heartbeat element in the component configuration file. In the example, the channel's unique identifier is MatchOutputChannel.

<channel>
    <name>MatchOutputChannel</name>
    <max-size>0</max-size>
    <max-threads>0</max-threads>
    <selector>match</selector>
    <heartbeat>10000</heartbeat>
</channel>

        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-none/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

</jms-adapter>

4.72 listeners

Use the listeners element to define the behavior for cache listeners. This element has the work-manager-name child element and the asynchronous attribute.

The work-manager-name child element specifies the work manager to use to invoke listeners asynchronously. Oracle Stream Explorer ignores the work manager value when you enable synchronous invocations. If a work manager is specified for the cache itself, this value overrides it for invoking listeners only.

The asynchronous attribute is required, is type Boolean, and when true, executes listeners asynchronously. The default value is false.

<diagnostic-profiles>
    <name>myselfprofiles</name>
    <profile>
        <name>testProfile0</name>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
        <start-stage>MetricSubscriber</start-stage>
        <throughput>
            <throughput-interval>
                <amount>100000</amount>
                <unit>MICROSECONDS</unit>
            </throughput-interval>
            <average-interval>
                <amount>100000000</amount>

            </average-interval>
            <location>
                <application>diagnostic</application>
                <stage>AlertEventStream</stage>
                <direction>INBOUND</direction>
            </location>
        </throughput>
    </profile>
</diagnostic-profiles>

4.74 max-latency

Use the max-latency element to define the maximum latency calculation of a diagnostic profile. This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

For more information, see the Using Visualizer for Oracle Stream Explorer.

The following example shows how to use the max-latency element in the component configuration file:

<diagnostic-profiles>
    <name>myselfprofiles</name>
    <profile>
        <name>testProfile0</name>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
        <start-stage>MetricSubscriber</start-stage>
        <max-latency>
            <start-location>
                <application>diagnostic</application>
                <stage>MetricSubscriber</stage>
                <direction>INBOUND</direction>
            </start-location>
            <end-location>
                <application>diagnostic</application>
                <stage>MonitorProcessor</stage>
                <direction>OUTBOUND</direction>
            </end-location>
        </max-latency>
    </profile>
</diagnostic-profiles>

4.75 max-size

Use the max-size element in the following parent elements:

  • channel: Use the max-size child element to specify the maximum size of the channel. Zero-size channels synchronously pass-through events. Non-zero size channels process events asynchronously and buffer events by the requested size. If max-threads is zero, then max-size is zero. The default value is 0.

  • cache: Use the max-size element to define the number of cache elements in memory after which eviction or paging occurs. Currently, the maximum cache size is 2^31-1 entries. This element may be changed dynamically

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the max-size element in the component configuration file:

<stream>
    <name>monitoring-control-stream</name>
    <max-size>10000</max-size>
    <max-threads>1</max-threads>
</stream>

4.76 max-threads

Use the max-threads element to define the maximum number of threads that Oracle Stream Explorer server uses to process events for a channel. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The default value is 0. If the max-size attribute is 0, then setting a value for max-threads has no effect.

When set to 0, the channel acts as a pass-through. When max-threads > 0, the channel acts as classic blocking queue, where upstream components are producers of events and the downstream components are the consumers of events. The queue size is defined by the configuration max-size. There will be up to max-threads number of threads consuming events from the queue.

You can change max-threads from 0 to a positive integer (that is, from a pass through to multiple threads) without redeploying. However, if you change max-threads from a positive integer to 0 (that is, from multiple threads to a pass through), then you must redeploy your application. Setting this value has no effect when max-size is 0.

The following example shows how to use the max-threads element in the component configuration file:

<channel>
    <name>monitoring-control-stream</name>
    <max-size>10000</max-size>
    <max-threads>1</max-threads>
</channel>

4.77 message-selector

Use the message-selector element with a JMS message selector to filter messages in a jms-adapter. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The syntax of a message selector expression is based on a subset of the SQL92 conditional expression syntax and message headers and properties. For example, to select messages based on property EventType, you could use:

EventType = 'News' OR 'Commentary'

The following example shows how to use the message-selector element in the component configuration file:

<jms-adapter>
    <name>jmsInbound-text</name>
    <connection-jndi-name>weblogic.jms.ConnectionFactory</connection-jndi-name>
    <destination-name>JMSServer-0/Module1!Queue1</destination-name>
    <user>weblogic</user>
    <password>weblogic</password>
    <work-manager>JettyWorkManager</work-manager>
    <message-selector>EventType = 'News' OR 'Commentary'</message-selector>
    <session-transacted>false</session-transacted>
</jms-adapter>

4.78 metadata

Use the metadata element to specify the name of the file that contains the JAXB Boxy external metadata for customizing the JAXB mapping. This element is optional and has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the metadata element in a configuration file.

 <rest-adapter>
    <name>httpInbound</name>
    <event-type-name>CallCenterActivity</event-type-name>
    <context-path>/testhttpadapter</context-path>
 </rest-adapter>
 <jaxb-mapper>
    <name>xmlMapperBean</name>
    <event-type-name>CallCenterActivity</event-type-name>
    <metadata>external_metadata_case1.xml</metadata>
 </jaxb-mapper>
 <csv-mapper>
    <name>csvMapperBean</name>
    <context-path>org.callcenter</context-path>
   <validate>false</validate>
 </csv-mapper>

4.79 name

The name of the element. Use the name element in the following parent elements:

  • EPN components: Use the name element to associate this application configuration element with its corresponding element in the assembly file. Valid value is the corresponding assembly file id attribute.

  • diagnostic-profiles: Use the name element to uniquely identify the diagnostic-profiles element and each of its profile child elements.

  • parameter: Use the name element to define the name of a name and value pair.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

  <rules>
    <query id="helloworldRule">
      <!-- <![CDATA[ select * from helloworldInputChannel[range 10 slide 5] >
      --> 
      select * from helloworldInputChannel[now]
    </query>
  </rules>
  </processor>
  <obr-adapter>
    <name>OBRAdapter</name>
    <dictionary-url>file:helloworld.rules</dictionary-url>
    <decision-function>handler1</decision-function>
  </obr-adapter>

4.83 offer-timeout

Use the offer-timeout element to specify the amount of time, when an event queue is full and a pending insert (the offer) is blocked, after which the pending event will be dropped or an exception raised. An exception will be raised when the fail-when-rejected value is set to true; otherwise, the event will be dropped. This setting is only applicable for event queues whose max-size value is greater than 0. The offer-timeout value should be specified as nanoseconds. The default is 60 seconds.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

In the following example, the channel is configured to raise an EventProcessingException if 15 seconds pass while the event queue is full.

<channel>
    <name>QueuedChannel</name>
    <max-size>1000</max-size>
    <max-threads>1</max-threads>
    <offer-timeout>15000000000</offer-timeout>

            select cusip, bid, srcId, bidQty, ask, askQty, seq 
            from priceStream where sector="1_YEAR"
        ></query>
    </rules>
</processor>

When you specify more than one query for an Oracle CQL processor, then, by default, all query results are sent to the processor's out-bound channel (filteredStream). Optionally, in the component configuration source, you can use the channel element selector child element to specify a space-delimited list of one or more Oracle CQL query names that can send their results to the channel as shows in the following example. In the example, the query results for query Yr3Sector and Yr2Sector are sent to filteredStream but the query results for query Yr1Sector are not.

<channel>
    <name>filteredStream</name>
    <selector>Yr3Sector Yr2Sector</selector>
</channel>

You may configure a channel element with a selector before creating the queries in the upstream processor. In this case, you must specify query names that match the names in the selector.

Note:

The selector attribute is only applicable if the up-stream stage is an Oracle CQL processor.

Example

The following example shows how to use the selector element in the component configuration file:

<processor>
    <name>PatternProcessor</name>
    <rules>
        <query id="match"><![CDATA[ 
            select T.firstW as firstw, T.lastZ as lastz, T.price as price
            from StockInputsStream 
            MATCH_RECOGNIZE ( 
                MEASURES A.c1 as firstW, last(Z.c1) as lastZ, A.c2 as price 
                PATTERN(A W+ X+ Y+ Z+) 
                DEFINE  A as A.c1 = A.c1, 
                        W as W.c2 < prev(W.c2), 
                        X as X.c2 > prev(X.c2), 
                        Y as Y.c2 < prev(Y.c2), 
                        Z as Z.c2 > prev(Z.c2)) 
            as T
        ></query>
         <query id="stock"><![CDATA[ 
            select c1 as ts, c2 as price from StockInputsStream
        ></query>
    </rules>
</processor>
<channel>
    <name>StockOutputChannel</name>
    <selector>stock</selector>
</channel>
<channel>
    <name>MatchOutputChannel</name>
    <selector>match</selector>
</channel>

4.107 server-context-path

Use the server-context-path required element to specify the path to the server for every local http-pub-sub-adapter for publishing. The default value is /pubsub. If you have created a new local HTTP pub-sub server or changed the default configuration, then specify the appropriate path child element value.

Note:

Do not specify the server-context-path element for a remote HTTP pub-sub adapter.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the server-context-path element in the component configuration file:

<http-pub-sub-adapter>
    <name>localPub</name>
    <server-context-path>/pubsub</server-context-path>
    <channel>/test1</channel>
</http-pub-sub-adapter>

4.108 server-url

Use the server-url required element specifies the path to the server for every remote http-pub-sub-adapter for publishing or subscribing. The remote HTTP pub-sub server could be another instance of Oracle Stream Explorer, or a WebLogic Server instance, or it could be any third-party HTTP pub-sub server. For example:

http://myhost.com:9102/pubsub

Note:

Do not specify the server-url element option for a local HTTP pub-sub adapter.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the server-url element in the component configuration file. In the example, the URL of the remote HTTP pub-sub server to which the remotePublisher adapter will publish events is http://myhost.com:9102/pubsub.

4.110 session-ack-mode-name

Use the session-ack-mode-name to define the session acknowledge mode name for a jms-adapter. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

Valid values from javax.jms.Session are the following. The default value is AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE.

  • AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE: With this acknowledgment mode, the session automatically acknowledges a client's receipt of a message either when the session has successfully returned from a call to receive or when the message listener the session has called to process the message successfully returns.

  • CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDG: With this acknowledgment mode, the client acknowledges a consumed message by calling the message's acknowledge method.

  • DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE: This acknowledgment mode instructs the session to lazily acknowledge the delivery of messages.

The following example shows how to use the session-ack-mode-name element in the component configuration file:

<jms-adapter>

The listeners element has a single child element, work-manager-name, that specifies the work manager to be used for asynchronously invoking listeners. This value is ignored if synchronous invocations are enabled. If a work manager is specified for the cache itself, this value overrides it for invoking listeners only.

Valid value is the name specified in the Oracle Stream Explorer server file work-manager element name child element. The default value is the work manager configured for the application itself.

The following example shows how to use the work-manager-name element in the component configuration file:

<cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-none/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
</cache>

4.129 write-behind

Use the write-behind element to specify asynchronous writes to the cache store. The cache store is invoked from a separate thread after a create or update of a cache entry. This element may be changed dynamically.

This element has the following child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the write-behind element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-behind>
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
            <batch-size>100</batch-size>
            <buffer-size>100</buffer-size>
            <buffer-write-attempts>100</buffer-write-attempts>
            <buffer-write-timeout>100</buffer-write-timeout>
        </write-behind>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.130 write-none

Use the write-none element to specify no writes to a cache store. No writes is the default write policy. You can change this element dynamically. This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the write-none element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-none/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>

4.131 write-through

Use the write-through element to specify synchronous writes to the cache store. As soon as an entry is created or updated the write occurs. You can change this element dynamically.

This element has no child elements and no attributes.

The following example shows how to use the write-through element in the component configuration file:

<caching-system>
    <name>providerCachingSystem</name>
    <cache>
        <name>providerCache</name>
        <max-size>1000</max-size>
        <eviction-policy>FIFO</eviction-policy>
        <time-to-live>60000</time-to-live>
        <idle-time>120000</idle-time>
        <write-through/>
        <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        <listeners asynchronous="false">
            <work-manager-name>JettyWorkManager</work-manager-name>
        </listeners>
    </cache>
</caching-system>
