Modify configuration settings of the outbound HTTP connection

We can change configuration settings of the outbound HTTP connection using the following interfaces: ModifiableOutboundConnectionProfile, ModifiablePolicyMapping, ModifiablePolicyRule, ModifiableCookieRule, and ModifiablePolicyVariable.

We can access these interfaces using the method OutboundConnectionModelController.getModifiableNode(). Changes that you make are not immediately applied at the data backend. We must confirm the changes. The following code example illustrates how we can modify configuration settings:

OutboundConnectionModel model; // For information about how to instantiate this model     // refer to the previous examples.
OutboundConnectionModelController ctrl; // For information about how to instantiate this             // controller, refer to the previous examples.
PolicyRule rule;// Refer to previous examples, how to instantiate this policy rule System.out.println("The original URL pattern of the PolicyRule is "+rule.getUrlPattern());
 // Get the Modifiable.. interface for the selected Policy rule. Change the URL pattern setting.
ModifiablePolicyRule mrule = (ModifiablePolicyRule)ctrl.getModifiableNode(rule);
mrule.setUrlPattern("http://localhost:9091/*");
 // Apply the changes.
ctrl.commit();
System.out.println("The URL pattern of the PolicyRule is now "+rule.getUrlPattern());
