Class CognosExternalExit

java.lang.Object

psdi.iface.migexits.BaseExit

psdi.iface.migexits.ExternalExit

com.ibm.tivoli.maximo.report.cognos.metadata.adapter.CognosExternalExit

public class CognosExternalExit
extends ExternalExit

This is the outbound processing class that will be called by the integration framework outbound invocation (Publish or Invocation channel). It is responsible for transforming Maximo Object Structure to Cognos Action Logs. The class doesn't implement the transformation logic. It depends on ActionLogBuilder for doing this mapping. Therefore, the class main role is to wrap the ActionLogBuilder as an outbound invocation Processing class.

There are some Maximo properties that must be set in the System Properties application before running the invocation channel because this class relies on them. These properties will be part of the generated Cognos action logs. Properties are:

1. DatabaseType - Maximo database type. For example: "DB2".
2. DatabaseName - Maximo database Name. For example: "MAXDB71". NOTE: only needed for SQL Server database.
3. SchemaName - Maximo schema name. For example: "MAXIMO"
