Static and Dynamic Wiring
The connection between a service and a reference is called a wire. A wire can be static or dynamic
The following illustration shows the two types of wiring.
A
static wire is explicitly specified in a composite. A
reference can be statically wired to at most one service. A
dynamic wire is created by the component invoking the
reference. A reference can be dynamically wired to many services. Dynamic
wiring is useful in circumstances where the target service of a reference is
not known until runtime. For example, a target service could be invoked based
on the zip code from which a request originates.
Dynamic wiring is supported by Virtualization and SOAP (SOAP/HTTP and SOAP/JMS) bindings and Mediation, Java, Spring, and WebApp components. When using dynamic wiring, both the component and promoted reference must be configured to use dynamic wiring. The target service is identified by the component implementation that invokes the reference. Depending on the component type, the component implementation can identify the target service either by providing the application and service name or by providing the URI of the service. For further information, see the specific component development manuals.
