Abstract:
A component based Application Middleware Framework () for modifying Application Middleware Framework (AMF) component services includes an interceptor () for intercepting an interface event being transmitted from a software management application (-) to a software component (). A rules database () stores AMF component service modifying rules, and an adaptor () modifies the interface event based on the AMF component service modifying rules stored in the rules database (). A policy engine () attempts to match the interface event with the AMF component service modifying rules stored in the rules database (), and subsequently coordinates the modification of the AMF component service by the adaptor () when the policy engine () matches the interface event with at least one of the AMF component service modifying rules stored in the rules database ().
