public class DescriptorUtils
extends java.lang.Object

This class provides generation/manipulation of Descriptor objects - ConnectorDescriptor, FunctionComponentDescriptor, ParserDescriptor. The class has dependency on the system MetamergeConfig and the Global FormConfig so it should only be used in the context of the Tivoli Directory Integrator Server.

Note: This class is for internal usage only. Any dependency from the end-user will not be supported. Changes to this class will happen without a warning.

Since:

7.1
