Programmatic Access to Runtime

The Runtime interface allows batchable and programmatic access to the Runtime Administration operations. The interface is designed to,

  • Provide command line interfaces allowing you to script the regular runtime administration tasks. Refer to Windows Administration Guide for more information about command line interfaces.

  • Include the behavior from multiple predefined sources of runtime administration functions in a class by accessing the Runtime API interfaces that expose several methods. This allows a client to script for automating complex operations by accessing the commonly used functions. Refer to the following topics for more information about the interfaces and methods.

The following AB Suite public interfaces that can be implemented are:

Description

Interface Name

Configure the database

IConfigureDatabase

IConfigureRuntime

Deploy AB Suite generated package

DeployPackage

Create a clone of a builder generated package

IDeployPackage

Note: You must have local administrator privilege to access the public interfaces. A normal user without administrative privileges can access the interfaces by using the user group, “AB Suite Runtime Administrators" on the local machine. You can refer to the Configuring Runtime for Normal Users in the Installation and Configuration Guide and the relevant AB Suite Interfaces for more information about security information pertaining to Runtime Administration tasks.
