Creating a new Service definition


OFBiz is made aware of a Service by the presence of a Service definition within a Service definition file. Each OFBiz Service has a Service definition that configures the Service with a name, location information, Service implementation engine type, and other optional parameters.

How to do it...

To create a new Service definition, follow these steps:

  1. 1. Find an existing Service definition file or create a new one.

  2. 2. Add one or more service element XML declarations. For example:

    <service name="someName" engine="one_of_the_available_engines"
    location="component_or_CLASSPATH_location"
    <!-- Add any INPUT/OUTPUT attribute elements here -->
    <!-- Add a PERMISSION-SERVICE element -->
    <!-- For Simple Services, add any AUTO-ATTRIBUTE elements -->
    </service>
