ADAPTIVE DISPATCH OF RECEIVED MESSAGES TO CODE USING INTER-POSITIONED MESSAGE MODIFICATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mechanism which dynamically dispatches received messages to code using inter-positioned message modification before dispatch. SOLUTION: Upon receiving a message, the message is passed through one or more receiving path components that are positioned in the receiving path of the message prior to being passed to a dispatching component. One or more of the receiving path components may modify the message to include information that may be helpful to the dispatching component in order to perform the dispatch. The dispatching component receives modified message and uses information from the modified message to perform the dispatch. The dispatching component may be more flexible in identifying the processing that should occur with the message. Accordingly, specialized and flexibly processing may be enabled that is ideally suited for the message. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
