com.sabre.redapp.example.cf.emu Sample

The com.sabre.redapp.example.cf.emu sample demonstrates the following functionality:

  • com.sabre.edge.cf.emu.ShowInEmulator. This service can send text to Sabre emulator. The text can be either a message that is displayed to end-users or a command that end-users can send from the emulator.

  • com.sabre.edge.cf.emu.ExecuteInEmulator. This service sends a command to the Sabre GDS through Sabre emulator, with options to display either the command, the response, both, or neither, in the emulator.

  • IWorkAreaService functionality. The EmulatorProxyDemoView class in this sample plug-in obtains agent work area data using IWorkAreaService.

The following describes the files that this sample includes:

  • Activator.java gets an instance of SRWRuntime and obtains an authentication token.

  • EmulatorProxyDemoView.java builds a dialog for demonstration purposes and uses IWorkAreaService.

  • redapp.xml includes authorization entries to use the ShowInEmulator and ExecuteInEmulator services.
