Understanding Implementing Handlers Using Application Classes

You can specify an application class as a handler for a service operation. This is the most typical implementation of a handler.

The process for implementing a handler using an application class is:

1. Develop an application class for implementing the handler.

   This process is discussed in this section.

   See Developing Application Classes for Implementing Handlers.

2. Add a handler to the service operation.

   This process is discussed elsewhere in this topic.

   See Adding a Handler to a Service Operation.

3. Specify general handler details.

   This process is discussed elsewhere in this topic.

   See Specifying General Handler Details.

4. Specify application class details for the handler.

   This process is discussed in this section.

   See Specifying Application Class Implementation Details.
