Automatic detection of components

Updated on February 16, 2021

By default, Pega Client Lifecycle Management for Financial Services provides the connection to the component. If your application needs to directly connect to any of them, you must use the automatic detection mechanism to avoid issues when the components are not in the application stack.

The system detects the presence of components in the stack using when rules. Pega Foundation for Financial Services is required in order to use the components. Each component has two associated when rules, one at Pega Foundation for Financial Services level and an override of that rule at the component level. The rule in the component layer is set to return a boolean value true (the component is present), whereas the rule present in the Pega Foundation for Financial Services layer returns a boolean value false (the component is not present).

When a component is linked to the application, its associated rulesets are put directly above the Pega Foundation for Financial Services rulesets for rule resolution. When the system detects the component, it selects the when rule at the component, therefore confirming its presence. If the component is not in the stack, the system selects the when rule (with a value of false) at the Pega Foundation for Financial Services layer and the application will not use the component services.

Customers with applications that have logic strongly coupled to the rules of the components should make use of the rules below. They should invoke them before invoking to the component-related logic to avoid issues at run time due to the absence of the component in the stack.
