SPLIT -- Breaking up a string into a list in ASLHere's a handy little utility for ASL, SPLIT. This function is found in almost every other programming language, but ASL has no SPLIT and so we must write it ourselves. We'll write our SPLIT function to take two arguments, a string to split up, and a character to use to determine the breaks between substrings. |
Creating ASCII characters in ASLWe're sometimes asked "Is there is an existing function (in ASL) that can convert an ascii number (in decimal) to its corresponding value, e.g. 33 -> !, 49 -> 1??". There is no such function built into ASL, but we can write our own function to accomplish this. |

Grokking the Paradigm - a WDK tutorialDennis Dawson presents a series of articles and slide decks (with narration) to help you get started with the Web Development Kit (WDK). The series begins with a gentle introduction, in practical terms, to the components used to create Webtop. In a way, Webtop is our best sample WDK application, because it shows the EMC view of how components should be implemented. Understanding Webtop design decisions and making small UI changes are great ways to begin WDK development. The new articles discuss 'Configuring Action Links' and 'Modifying Menus' in WDK. |
WDK Authentication and Session ManagementEMC Documentum web applications are based on the WDK framework. These act as web clients to the Content Server and provide a way of leveraging content server functionality through the web. An understanding of how WDK manages HTTP and Documentum sessions in essential when debugging/troubleshooting customizations on WDK. This guide not only discusses WDK session management but also provides an indepth look at the pluggable authentication mechanism available in WDK. |
WDK Portlets OverviewWDK for Portlets is an extension of the exiting WDK and Webcomponent framework where specific support for JSR 168 containers (portal servers) has been added. The goal is to be able to deploy WDK for Portlets in any JSR 168 container, including ones that are not supported by the installer at the moment such as Plumtree and JBoss. This paper by Michael provides an overview of the WDK Portlets feature. |
WDK Content TransferWDK currently support two modes of content transfer – HTTP and UCF. HTTP is content transfer through standard HTTP mechanisms. This document will provide a high level overview of the capabilities and limitations of the two content transfer mechanisms, as well as a more in-depth treatment of the design of UCF. |
ECIS Base Sample AdapterThe BaseSample Adapter helps the adapter developer to get started and create his own java adapter. It is a complementary material to the ECIS adapter development guide. The provided files should be customized and not used 'as is'. |
ECIS HTTP Sample AdapterThe HttpSample Adapter helps the adapter developer to get started and create his own java adapter on an HTTP source. It is a complementary material to the ECIS adapter development guide. The provided files should be customized and not used 'as is' |
ECIS JDBC Sample AdapterThe JDBC Adapter is used to connect ECI Services to relational databases. This is the standard ECI JDBC Adapter packaged as a standalone Adapter, including the source code. It can be extended or be used as an example of a complex Adapter. |
