Dynamic Business Objects. Administrators use this dynamic business object (DBO) in My webMethods Server to store general role properties for a role. My webMethods Server implicitly creates instances of this DBO when new roles are added to the system.
Users should never publish instances of this DBO. However, administrators can use this DBO to create roles from xmlImport.xml script files, for example, to create multiple roles to be deployed to multiple servers. The following is an example of an xmlImport script file that creates a static role named "Test Role". "Test Role" has the members: "user1", "user2", and "user3".
<context alias="role.provider.storage">
<!-Creating storage for static role -->
<wm_xt_staticrole name="Test Role" principals="user1,user2,user3"
alias="test. role.storage" targetURI="test.role.storage" />
</context>
<context alias="role.provider.roles">
<!-Creating Role instance -->
<wm_xt_role name="Test Role"
roleProviderURI="role.static.provider"
alias="test.role">
<relation path="test.role.storage"
type="role.relation"
/>
</context>
