TIBCO Rendezvous® 8.8.0

# Scope of the Tools

The Rendezvous configuration tools set consists of three parts:

| • | An API for coding configuration programs.

| • | A general configuration tool.

| • | An XML syntax for configuration data.

## Configuration API

The Rendezvous configuration API consists of a set of Java classes. You can use these classes and their methods to write programs that configure or examine Rendezvous daemons (and other component processes). This book presents the API in depth.

The methods can get parameters, set parameters, and get state information—the same set of operations that you do using the daemon’s browser administration interface.

Using Java programs for these operations can speed the distribution of administrative changes to a large number of daemon processes.

Warning | Interacting with a daemon too frequently can degrade the daemon’s performance (for example, repeatedly polling for statistical information). Use immediate-access methods conservatively.

## Command Line Tool

Using the configuration API, we have implemented a command line tool for general use. tibrvcfg interacts with a component to execute one configuration command, and outputs the results to `stdio`.

You can use tibrvcfg to dump an XML configuration document reflecting the configuration of a Rendezvous component process. Other commands can load an XML document, so a component conforms to the configuration it specifies.

For details, see Command Line Tool—tibrvcfg.

## XML

DTD files define the syntax of XML configuration documents for Rendezvous components. These definitions guide the command line tools to produce and parse correct XML documents.
