Understanding the Configuration
- The Activator Process (Activator.bwp)
The BusinessWorks Activator process is used to perform pre-processing and post- processing tasks when the application is started and stopped respectively.
This contains a process service with two operations: OnStartup and OnShutDown.
The onStartup operation creates two database tables: order_table and sub_order and the onShutdown operation drops both the tables at the end of the application execution.
- The JDBC test process (JDBC_TEST.bwp)
This process uses the JDBC Connection in the Resources folder to establish a connection to the database and to execute SELECT and UPDATE queries. The process first queries the table for a specific record using the JDBC_Query activity and then it updates another table using the JDBC_Update activity. Both activities use prepared parameters as input. This shows the ability to execute the same statement with multiple values by caching the statement at runtime.
