Starting with version 4.0.5, WS MDS includes a Java package subsystem called UsefulRP which is home to (among other things) the Resource Property Provider component, otherwise known as the RPProvider Framework. The RPProvider Framework is an extensible software component that can be used to dynamically generate XML values for one or more WSRF Resource Properties in any given GT4 Java WSRF-Core compatible service.
Features in GT 4.0.5+ WS MDS UsefulRP
- Provides API and implementation for working with customized resource properties and information providers
- Provides an implementation of a GLUE 1.1 schema compliant resource property
- Provides sample resource property implementations for service developers to incorporate into their own services
- The Resource Property Information Provider package (rpprovider) has been added.
- The GLUE Resource Property implementation has been rewritten to use the new Resource Property Information Provider framework, making it more easy to customize and open to parameterization.
- A small utility tool, mds-gluerp-configure, has been added to help simplify administrator configuration of the GLUE resource property.
- Support for standard WSRF Subscription/Notification has been added, use of which is automatic when the hosting service supports subscription via GT4 WSRF-Core operation provider
