Fluent Configuration

The FluentConfigurator uses a the Fluent Interface style as described by Martin Fowler.

To wire up the configuration programmatically rather than having to use dwr.xml, you'll need to:

Create a concrete implementation of org.directwebremoting.fluent.FluentConfigurator which implements the configure() method.
Add an init param 'customConfigurator' to the DWR servlet in web.xml to point at your new class.

The implementation of configure() will look something like this:

public void configure() {
   withConverterType("dog", "com.yourcompany.beans.Dog");
   withCreatorType("ejb", "com.yourcompany.dwr.creator.EJBCreator");
   withCreator("new", "ApartmentDAO")
       .addParam("scope", session)
       .addParam("class", "com.yourcompany.dao.ApartmentDAO")
       .exclude("saveApartment")
       .withAuth("method", "role");
   withCreator("struts", "DogDAO")
       .addParam("clas", "com.yourcompany.dao.DogDAO")
       .include("getDog")
       .include("getColor");
   withConverter("dog", "*.Dog")
       .addParam("name", "value");
   withSignature()
       .addLine("import java.util.List;")
       .addLine("import com.example.Check;")
       .addLine("Check.setLotteryResults(List<Integer> nos);");
}
