Adapter files

In addition to the header file or Java™ package, a number of files are related to the adapter. This section lists these files and shows the relationship between them and event processing.

There are several adapter files. In addition to the header file or Java package, the following are files related to the adapter:

.conf file: The configuration file controls filtering and buffering of events. It also controls communications.
.rls file: The rule file applies custom rules to events for filtering, tasks, and other actions. Some rule files are installed on the event server by default. You can optionally specify other rules.
