[CDO] Start own bundle in CDO Server [message #946554] Tue, 16 October 2012 09:36 Go to next message

Hi,

I have a CDO server where I would like to add my own bundle. The bundle contains (CDO) code that reacts to a model change and does an operation (writes a file)).

It turns out to be really hard to start the "new" bundle together with the CDO server because:
- Either it will not start at all...
- Or it will start BEFORE CDO, which is not working since the bundle needs to create a CDO Session.

How can I do this properly?
Is there an CDO related osgi service or something that my bundle can depend on to make it start after the CDO server?

///Anders

You may want to implement and contribute an org.eclipse.emf.cdo.spi.server.IAppExtension ;-)

Yes, it works perfect. Thanks a lot!

I use CDO client code in IAppExtension.start() to connect to the (same) server via tcp, start a session, open a view and listen to the model. Is this the preferred way to interact with the model or is there a more direct way to, for instance, open a view using CDO server code?

Excellent ;-)

Why not via JVM transport? That would be faster.

Yes.

You can open a ServerCDOView with these methods:

org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.CDOServerUtil.openView(ISession, CDOBranchPoint, boolean, CDORevisionProvider)
org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.CDOServerUtil.openView(ISession, CDOBranchPoint, boolean)
org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.CDOServerUtil.openView(IView, boolean)
org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.CDOServerUtil.openView(CommitContext, boolean)

But they have very limited capabilities, no write access, no invalidations. Just what's needed to traverse a state of
the model graph in terms of EObjects.

Hi (again),


Is there a way to get notified when the CDO server has completed its startup (I thought IAppExtension would be it)?


In order to be able to run my own code in a cdo server application and specifically to start it in an orderly fashion i implemented an org.eclipse.emf.cdo.spi.server.IAppExtension.

In the IAppExtension I configure a CDOSession and start a CDOTransaction to the same server (which is currently beeing started).

It turns out there is no guarantee that the server is started, which may occasionally render an exception of type:
org.eclipse.net4j.util.lifecycle.LifecycleException: Could not activate TCPClientConnector[localhost:2,036]

It seems to be the "Net4j extension starting" part that may or may not have happened before the IAppExtensions are called.

You could start your bundle that contains your own extension at a higher start level than cdo/net4j.
If you are using a product definition to export your server, you can configure the start level of each bundle in the "Configuration" section.

The way we do it:

CDO has plugin extenstion points like here:

<extension
point="org.eclipse.net4j.util.elementProcessors">
<elementProcessor

class="com.netxforge.netxstudio.server.job.JobHandler$Initializer">
</elementProcessor>
</extension>

The class must implement IElementProcessor

public Object process(IManagedContainer container, String productGroup,
String factoryType, String description, Object element) {
if (element instanceof IRepository) {
final IRepository repository = (IRepository) element;
repository.addListener(new LifecycleEventAdapter() {
@Override
public void notifyLifecycleEvent(ILifecycleEvent event) {
if (event.getKind() == Kind.ACTIVATED) {
...DO YOUR THINGY HERE
}
});
}
return element;
}

That's what I was going to suggest ;-)

Oh, and you can do the same thing with the configured acceptor!

Hi, thanks for suggestions!

But, when i put my thingy in place of the "...DO YOUR THINGY HERE" thingy I still get an exception:
org.eclipse.net4j.util.lifecycle.LifecycleException: Could not activate TCPClientConnector[127.0.0.1:2,036]

The "thingy" here beeing that I am trying to create a CDOSession to the server using tcp (apparently I should use "jvm transport" instead but I haven't gotten around to that yet).

And the output below still happens after that (at least it is PRINTED to the log after the stack trace):
[INFO] Net4j extension starting

!ENTRY org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.net4j 1 0 2013-03-19 15:30:43.627
!MESSAGE Net4j extension starting
[INFO] Net4j extension started

!ENTRY org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server.net4j 1 0 2013-03-19 15:30:43.641

[INFO] CDO server started

!ENTRY org.eclipse.emf.cdo.server 1 0 2013-03-19 15:30:43.642
!MESSAGE CDO server started


Also; Eike, can you give me a little more hint about what "the configured acceptor" is.

Is your code capable to open a TCPClientConnector without the Extension
mechanism that I described earlier?

ah, that's a different issue.
here is a snippet.

final IManagedContainer container = IPluginContainer.INSTANCE;
acceptor = JVMUtil.getAcceptor(container, "default");
connector = JVMUtil.getConnector(container, "default");

// Create configuration
final CDONet4jSessionConfiguration sessionConfiguration = CDONet4jUtil
.createNet4jSessionConfiguration();

sessionConfiguration.setConnector(connector);
sessionConfiguration.setRepositoryName(REPO_NAME);

BTW, I really recommend to checkout the cdo test plugin, it has tons of

Hej Anders,

I meant that if you rely on a TCP connection to the repository you should not listen for repository activation but for
the TCP acceptor activation, in Christophe's words:

public Object process(IManagedContainer container, String productGroup,
String factoryType, String description, Object element) {
if (element instanceof ITCPAcceptor) {
final ITCPAcceptor acceptor = (ITCPAcceptor) element;
acceptor.addListener(new LifecycleEventAdapter() {
@Override
public void notifyLifecycleEvent(ILifecycleEvent event) {
if (event.getKind() == Kind.ACTIVATED) {
...DO YOUR THINGY HERE
}
});
}
return element;
}

The acceptor is always started after the repository, i.e. in the Net4j extension.

Does that help?

Cheers
/Eike

Hi,

Listening to ITCPAcceptor activation solves the problem!

Thanks also for the JVM acceptor snippet, will try that later.

Thanks a lot
