Defining Interfaces

If you expect other DataBlade modules to use the functionality provided by your DataBlade module, create an interface. DataBlade developers can include the interface in a DataBlade module to ensure that BladeManager registers the DataBlade module with the interface before registering the DataBlade module dependent on the interface.

The interface you define encompasses all of your DataBlade module.

The following table lists the properties you specify when you create an interface.

Property Default Description
Interface name INewInterface The name of the interface. Must be unique. Change the name to Iproject, where project is the name of your DataBlade module.
Interface description None Optional. A description of the interface and its intended purpose.

For Dynamic Server Version 9.2 and later, the maximum length of an interface name is 64 characters.

For Dynamic Server Version 9.14, the maximum length of an interface name is 18 characters.
