Dynamic Connector Targets 1 Year, 10 Months ago Karma: 0
Hello again!

I'd like to be able to create an application that uses Convertigo to connect to a user configurable web page. I see this as possible in two different ways:

1. A single connector who's 'server' target can be changed per client connection.

2. A method of dynamically adding connectors (copied from a template connector) to the Convertigo server at run time, and configuring those connectors with a given 'server' target as they're created.

The connector would be defined to connect to a particular kind of web page, only the user would be able to define what instance of that web page is connected to.

Does anyone have thoughts on how this could be accomplished?

Creating dynamic connectors is not supported by Convertigo and even though is not really in the "philosophy" of the product. Nevertheless, you can solve your request by using these steps.

The goal is to have a transaction being able to connect to any web page supplied by a user variable. To do this just :

- Create a HTML connector
- Create a stateless Transaction 'ConnectToUrl'
- Create a Variable named "destUrl"
- Create in the 'ConnectToUrl' transaction a onTransactionStarted handler
- In this handler use the NavigationBar statement.
- Use the goTo action. You will notice that the 'Javascript URL' property is 'javascriptable' so that you can use the 'destUrl' variable as value.

This should do the trick !

Just a little detail....

The solution posted to solve this dynamic Connector targets is not a workaround. This 'IS' the way this should be done. the NavigationBar/goto statement has been developed and implemented exactly for this purpose.
