Stored Procedure Configuration

A stored procedure is a routine on the server tat can be invoked by name. DataCaster supports Java and Jython stored procedures.

The procedures.xml conf file specifies the list of configured Procedures, each of which needs a ProcedureClass instance to implement the procedure.

The supported attributes of Procedure are:

1. name: Procedure name used to specify the procedure. Procedure names are case insensitive.
2. ProcedureClass: The class name of the Java class to be used, which must have a constructor with no arguments.

The following properties (ProcedureProperty tags) are used to confire procedures.

• MethodName
• MinNumberOfArgs
• IsStatic

A set or Argument elements is used to specify each procedure parameter.
