Characteristics of application adapters

Event triggers

Application adapters cannot be used as source event triggers, they are client applications within a map instance.

Wildcards can be used in an application adapter override command to coordinate trigger events with adapter arguments.

Custom adapters can make use of the OnFailure and Retry options. The Launcher passes the information to the adapter. The adapter is responsible for responding to the rollback and retry.
OnSuccess options are passed to application adapters.
Retry options apply only if an adapter can be found and if applicable to that adapter. If not available on the server where the Launcher is installed, you will get a source not available or a target not available message.
Note: If you use your own application adapter, you are responsible for including functions for OnFailure and Retry options. For more information about using your own application adapter, see the TX Programming Interface documentation.
