Create New Project
VulCon has its own type of project, in which files are created for the initial operation of the views of the new project in more than one switch to the perspective VulCon where there are three views for configuration. The three views for configuring VulCon are:
Core: | Represents the core configuration file of GreenVulcano® ESB. |
---|---|
Adapters: | Represents the configuration file of the adapters of GreenVulcano® ESB.The adapters view may change depending on the installation or the license of VulCon that you use. |
Variables: | Represents the file where you define the variables identified in previous views. |
Example Creating a new VulCon project
First flow service
The easiest way to create a VulCon Service is interacting with the “Wizard New Service” option. From the Core view, select the wizard item in the drop down menu shown expanding the GVServices element and clicking on the Services element with the right mouse button. In addition to service name, user may select a group (among those ones already configured) and a communication paradigm between the couples Client-ESB and ESB-Server. In this new service, client will be any system suggested with GreenVulcano® ESB name, and server will be an internal GreenVulcano® ESB test service.
VulCon Context Menus and Tooltips
Elements of VulCon views are described by an associated DTD. Each element has both formal and improved controls defined in the same DTD. Context menu and popups works through this mechanism, and they appear clicking on a VulCon views element with mouse right button (Fig.1)
In addition, comments and warnings (reported in red colour background) of DTD elements appears as tooltip when user hovers the cursor over an item. (Fig.2)
