Interface GenericMessage

All Superinterfaces:
Message, RecordMessage
public interface GenericMessage extends RecordMessage

Interface for sending Generic messages, adding fields by name and value.

 

 

GenericMessage behaves according to the RecordMessage interface, so calling RecordMessage.getFields() on a GenericMessage returns an identical list of fields to a properly configured adapter using a RecordType1Message.

While GenericMessage behave similarly to RecordType1Message, it eliminates the need to provide field mappings in fields.conf. This may be useful when receiving updates from a provider which supplies a variable or unknown number of fields.

A new GenericMessage can be instantiated by calling MessageFactory.createGenericMessage(String) (MessageFactory is is available via Publisher.getMessageFactory()).

Note: After publishing a message, do not reuse the message (e.g. change the content, republish) as this can cause issues.

    • setNoCache

      void setNoCache(boolean noCache)
