Poseidon Application Creation Help


This is a Poseidon Refence Application, an application that is running on top of Poseidon Framework.
You are likely seeing this help because you started Poseidon without an application. Poseidon started
Reference Application to help you get started on creating your own Poseidon application.

You can create your own application by implementing Application -interface located in the
com.nokia.em.poseidon.plugin.application -package. For even easier solution look up the code of the
ReferenceApplication -class and extend it for your own purposes. The ReferenceApplication is in the
com.nokia.em.poseidon.demos.referenceapp -package.

To start your own application you can simply give PoseidonStarter -class a command line parameter
describing the application that should be started. For example to start application that is located in the
default package and is named MyOwnApplication is as follows:

PoseidonStarter -application MyOwnApplication

Poseidon supports configuration files to create more complex configurations. Following is an simple example
how the previous application can be started via configuration file.

<configuration>
<plugin type="application" name="myownapp" classname="MyOwnApplication"/>
</configuration>
The configuration can be given as command line parameter for the PoseidonStarter as follows:

PoseidonStarter -confFile myConf.xml

We suggest that you check into the RefenceApplication code, it should give you a head start on creating
your own application and take full advantage of Poseidon.

Happy Coding!
