Extend the DatabaseTriggerLoadService class

This new class will be used to dynamically load the specified database triggers.

Akioma.Swat.Server.Startup.DatabaseTriggerLoadService is a SWAT class which implements the IDatabaseTriggerLoadService interface. You will need to extend this class.

The new class will be used to dynamically load the specified database triggers on top of any triggers loaded from SWAT.

You can specify the triggers to load in the LoadTriggers method of the class.

It is recommended to extend the existing SWAT implementation instead of writing a new implementation for the interface, since triggers may also be loaded from SWAT.

Override the existing IDatabaseTriggerLoadService service

IDatabaseTriggerLoadService is an interface which is implemented by the DatabaseTriggerLoadService class.

In order to make use of this new classimplementation, we will need to override the default trigger load service in the services.xml file by including the following:

...

<ttServiceLoaderRow>
    <Order>0</Order>
    <ServiceTypeName>Akioma.Swat.Server.Startup.IDatabaseTriggerLoadService</ServiceTypeName>
    <ServiceClassName>Custom.CustomDatabaseTriggerLoadService</ServiceClassName>
</ttServiceLoaderRow>

This will specify which class implementation is used for the IDatabaseTriggerLoadService service.

Load the custom triggers

In the above example, we run loadCustomTriggers.p from the LoadTriggers method. A simple possible implementation of the procedure will look like this:

{Custom/Triggers/myCreateTrigger.i}	//here, we just include the desired triggers

Trigger implementation

And inside Inside the trigger itself:

ON CREATE OF myTable
DO:
  MESSAGE "Created new record".
END.
