Method Detail

initializePlugins

void initializePlugins()

Initialize the configured plug-ins. The communicator automatically initializes the plug-ins by default, but an application may need to interact directly with a plug-in prior to initialization. In this case, the application must set Ice.InitPlugins=0 and then invoke initializePlugins() manually. The plug-ins are initialized in the order in which they are loaded. If a plug-in raises an exception during initialization, the communicator invokes destroy on the plug-ins that have already been initialized.

Throws:

InitializationException - Raised if the plug-ins have already been initialized.
