The CHA Formatter Service handles the formatting for a given
application using the Web Services Invocation Framework (WSIF) and EJB technologies.
It provides format services both for CHA contexts and for local contexts and
local data elements. It is a bridge between the Branch Transformation Toolkit
applications and the formatters of the toolkit for providing the
following services:
- Formatting data elements and contexts.
- Unformatting data elements and contexts.
- Mapping contents between two contexts
The CHA Formatter Service is a standard WSIF service. That is, non-toolkit
applications, activities, and other WSIF clients all can use the CHA Formatter
Service.
