RPC Plugins

A closer look at compiling and using Sybase CEP Remote Procedure Call (RPC) plugins. The RPC plugin enables CCL statements to call remote procedures and remote functions.

The information in this section is based on the RPC plugins that Sybase CEP supplies, but the steps should be nearly identical for any RPC plugin, including RPC plugins written by customers or third parties.

Sybase CEP supplies a .dll or .so file with the HTTP and SOAP plugins, so you will only need these instructions if you need a custom RPC plugin. You can use the Sybase CEP-supplied source code as a starting point for your custom plugin if you wish. The locations of the compiled library and the source code files are listed in Generic HTTP and SOAP Plugins.
