Tutorial 04 02 Add Traditional Bridge Project
This tutorial assumes that you have already followed the Building a Service From Scratch tutorial, and have an existing and working Harmony Core service that does not include a Traditional Bridge environment.
A Traditional Bridge solution involves both traditional Synergy code that will be implemented in a new project in your solution, as well as Synergy .NET code that will be added to several of your existing projects. On the traditional Synergy side, Traditional Bridge is usually implemented within a project that produces a DBR program, although you could choose to arrange some of the code into ELB's if you prefer.
The DBR program will ultimately:
- Listen for messages (requests) that received via standard in (TT:).
- Execute code in response to those messages.
- Send appropriate responses via standard out (TT:).
These messages are structured in compliance with a standard protocol called JSON RPC 2.0, and this whole mechanism is described in more detail in the topic related to the Dynamic Call Protocol.
