Control Flow

The adapter loads its configuration from a file (for example, adapter.xml) and validates it against the adapter schema (httpadapter.xsd), which includes the API-wide controller schema (controller.xsd).

You cannot edit schemas.

The Adapter Controller creates an instance of the adapter, receives and executes user commands. The Adapter Controller executes start, stop, and status commands.

• Start Command
  The start command configures and starts the adapter command and control interface, gets the Message Handler to start listening for client connections, and connects the SpSubscriber component to Event Stream Processor via the SDK interface.
• Stop Command
  The stop command disconects the SpSubscriber from Event Stream Processor,causes the Message Handler to finalize the HTTP responses to the existing clients, disconnect them and stop listening for connections from new clients, and terminates he adapter process.
• Status Command
  The status command reports the adapter status, and the Adapter Controller prints out its status: either running or stopped.
