Invoking the Optimization PeopleCode Plug-In

If you're developing an optimization application that uses the Optimization PeopleCode plug-in, you must do the following to invoke the plug-in:

• Develop a PeopleCode application class that extends the PT_OPT_BASE:OptBase class.

• Define methods in your application class that use the PeopleCode OptInterface class to perform your optimization functions.

• Define an analytic type that specifies the Optimization PeopleCode plug-in, by selecting the PeopleCode Plugin check box in the analytic type properties.

• In the analytic type properties, specify the application package and application class that you developed.

• Define transactions in your analytic type definition that correspond to the methods you developed in your application class, with corresponding parameters.
