## Class VirtualComponent

- java.lang.Object
- - tigase.cluster.VirtualComponent

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Configurable, XMPPService, DisableDisco, ServerComponent, VHostListener

      public class VirtualComponent
      extends Object
      implements ServerComponent, XMPPService, Configurable, DisableDisco, VHostListener

  The purpose of this component implementation is to forward packets to a target real component implementation in the cluster installation. Let's say you have a cluster installation with full Tigase server installed on each node and you also want to use a component which doesn't have clustered implementation yet. In such case you deploy the component on one of the cluster nodes and put the virtual component on all other nodes. With proper configuration they pretend to be the component returning a correct service disco information and forward all packets for this component to a cluster node with real component running. This is a very lightweight implementation which doesn't use much resources either memory or CPU. It can work well for any kind of a component: MUC, PubSub, transport either native Tigase components or third-party components connected via XEP-0114 - external protocol component. Basic configuration parameters are actually the same as for a real component. You set a real component name as a name for the virtual component and a vritual component class name to load. Let's say we want to deploy MUC component this way. The MUC component is visible as `muc.domain.our` in our installation. Thus the name of the component is: `muc`:

       --comp-name-1=muc
       --comp-class-1=tigase.cluster.VirtualComponent

  This is pretty much all you need to load a virtual component. A few other options are needed to point to correct destination addresses for forwarded packets and to set correct service discovery parameters:

       muc/redirect-to=muc@cluster-node-with-real-muc.domain.our
       muc/disco-name=Multi User Chat
       muc/disco-node=
       muc/disco-type=text
       muc/disco-category=conference
       muc/disco-features=http://jabber.org/protocol/muc
       muc/fixed-domain=example.com

  Above options set all possible parameters to setup virtual MUC component. Created: Dec 13, 2008 7:44:35 PM
