How to develop an agent implementation which can be started by Agent Controller [message #131680] Thu, 26 June 2008 09:52 Go to next message

Hello,

I developed an agent implementation based on
org.eclipse.tptp.platform.execution.datacollection.BaseAgent , deployed it
into <AC_Home>/plugins. After it's initialized and registered in an JVM(for
exmaple, Tomcat), I can attach it via Agent Controller and get data from it.
It works well.

Now, I want to develop another agent implementation which can be started by
Agent Controller. That means, I don't need to initialize and register it via
some other program. Just after start Agent Controller, I can attach this
agent and transfer data with it.

Is it support by Agent Controller?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

I tried to simulate org.eclipse.tptp.TimeCollector and
org.eclipse.tptp.JavaTimeCollector to implement the agent which can be
started by Agent Controller. It seems the only thing I need to do is to
create the directory with the agent name in <AC_Home>/agents and edit
agent.xml in it. The key point is "Application" element. It seems Agent
Controller tries to execute the command defined in this element when
IAgentController.getAgent(String agentName, String agentClassName) is
invoked. And I checked whether the agent is deployed correctly via
IAgentController.queryAvailableAgents().

I still have 2 questions.
1. What's the meaning of "ConfigFile" element? I found the agent works well
even the config file is not existed.
2. I found the relative path in "Application" element doesn't work in my
environment. I have to declare the absolute path. Is this a bug?

Thanks a lot!
