The ApplicationProperties class

The ApplicationProperties class represents the properties of the environment in which the application will be run, for example, locale. It is required to create the WVR object which represents the base Blueworx Voice Response system. The ApplicationProperties class contains the following properties, each with get and set methods, as appropriate:

• applicationName: the application name by which the application will be known in the configuration file (the name that is linked to the phone number or line number for incoming calls). Default is an empty String.
• nodeName: the name of the voice response node, as specified in the NodeName configuration entry in the configuration file. The default is Node1.
• ipAddress: the name or address by which the voice response node is known to the network. The default is 127.0.0.1 (the local system).
• rmiPortNumber: the port number that the voice response node uses for the RMI registry. Make sure this matches the RMIPortNumber value in the HostName configuration entry in the configuration file. The default is 26924.
• locale: the locale for the application, in the form of a java.util.Locale object. Determines the default language and region of all voice segments in the application. For more information about the application locale see Setting the application locale.
• recoDefinitions: the speech recognition technology to use in this application, if different from the RecoDefinitions set in the NodeName configuration entry in the configuration file.
• ttsDefinitions: the Text-To-Speech technology to use in this application, if different from the TTSDefinitions set in the NodeName configuration entry in the configuration file.
• parameters: a Hashtable containing the application parameters. Application parameters allow values to be passed to the application. The hashtable uses the parameter name as the key. All parameter values must be strings.

You can create the ApplicationProperties object using the above properties as parameters, in the order above. Alternatively, you can create the object with default properties, and then set any properties you need to change according to your particular environment. For example:

public class MyVoiceApp extends WVRApplication {
	
  public void voiceMain() throws WVRException {
		
    // Create the application properties object
    ApplicationProperties appProperties = new ApplicationProperties();
		
    // Change some of the properties to match this particular environment 		
    applicationProperties.setApplicationName("app1");
    applicationProperties.setLocale(Locale.US);
