Interface IServerApplicationSetupProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

PluginActivator, PluginActivator, PluginDescriptor

public interface IServerApplicationSetupProvider

Interface implemented by the principal plug-in properties to provide information for a Server configuration of the application. E.g. the Database would use the Connection Profile settings, the Web Service uses Proxy information, the Terminal uses Terminal properties.

When an application starts, all set-up instances are queried to gather the setup's required. In order for the application to function in the Server, a default configuration must be provided. This default configuration can be overridden by specifying an alternate name for the configuration in question. The configurations are then initialized.
