Development Time Tasks and Support
At development time, you write the Java classes that define the adapter. To do this, you extend the base classes provided by the ADK to produce an adapter definition class and template classes for connections, adapter services, polling notifications, and listener notifications.
At development time, you must:
1. Create the Adapter Definition.
2. Define Connections and Connection Factories.
3. Define Adapter Service Templates.
4. Define Polling Notification Templates.
5. Define Listener Notification Templates.
6. Define Metadata.
Support for other development-time activities includes:
1. Transaction Support.
2. Exception Support.
3. Logging Support.
4. Internationalization Support
