How to Create Custom Proxies

A CA Gen Proxy is an interface that enables a user-written client application to communicate with a generated CA Gen server. Proxies allow applications that are not generated using CA Gen, to use the procedure step logic provided as part of a Distributed Processing Server (DPS). In general, proxies provide application developers additional flexibility in creating multi-tier applications.

Proxies also allow applications that are not generated using CA Gen, to access the interfaces and methods defined as components within a CBD-compliant model.

Note: For more information about proxies, see the Distributed Processing – Overview Guide.

You can declare any number of interfaces for a procedure step. You can create custom proxies out of the interfaces that you created for a procedure step.

Follow these steps:

  1. Add a proxy definition
  2. Add a proxy
  3. Customize the proxy
