Create interfaces
If you expect other DataBlade® modules to use the functionality provided by your DataBlade® module, create an interface.
DataBlade® developers can include the interface in a DataBlade® module to ensure that BladeManager registers the DataBlade® module with the interface before registering the DataBlade® module dependent on the interface.
The interface you define encompasses all of your DataBlade® module.
The following table lists the properties you specify when you create
an interface.
Property | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
Interface name | INewInterface | The name of the interface. Must be unique. Change the name to Iproject, where project is the name of your DataBlade® module. |
Interface description | None | Optional. A description of the interface and its intended purpose. |
For HCL Informix® Version 9.2 and later, the maximum length of an interface name is 64 characters.
For HCL Informix® Version 9.14, the maximum length of an interface name is 18 characters.
