Unwired Accelerator provides several custom capture options and strategies for the following:
Custom – Web capture option that allows developers to create their own “feature extractor” JSP that processes HTML content. The JSP is used at capture time and run time.
Crystal – Custom Web capture option that has been adapted for the unique requirements of Crystal Reports. It is intended only to support Crystal Reports generated by the Business Objects XI server, Release 1. For additional Business Object capture strategies, see “Business Objects capture strategy”.
Custom XSL – Web capture option that allows developers to create an XSL file that can be used to transform HTML from the target Web site that has been converted by jTidy to XML.
The custom options provide alternative means to get around problems or issues that would otherwise prevent standard Web capture in Unwired Accelerator. The enhancements manipulate capture and playback mechanisms to overcome the problems.
Unlike other Unwired Accelerator features, custom capture options require you know basic Java, can create JSP and XSL/XSLT files, and understand how HTML pages work. Additional time is also needed to analyze the Web source, in order for you to create the JSP and XSL files to extract the features you want to capture.
