You can use the Sample connector in any of the following ways:
The Sample connector can help you verify the correct operation of the CA SOI IFW to ensure that the product is running connectors and displaying connector data.
For more information, see Running the Sample Connector.
The Sample connector contains the materials necessary to build a custom Level 4, 5, or 6 connector. It demonstrates the implementation of all required Java interfaces and the connector policy. It also demonstrates how to use the test harness provided with the system so that you can verify the connector's functionality before deploying the connector to CA SOI. The Sample connector implementation works with mock data that simulates a domain manager. You can use this interface for testing or when the domain manager data is not easily available.
For more information, see Building a Custom Connector.
The Sample connector can serve as a trigger to test the inbound operations that enable a custom connector to create, update, and delete data in its domain manager based on CI changes in CA SOI. This testing technique forces a change to an instance of a USM type managed by the Sample connector. The CA Catalyst Synchronizer then sends that change to all connectors enabled for the USM type. If a custom connector supports inbound operations for the USM type, the connector's create, update, or delete method is called and tested.
