how to get usage of a specific wdk component

Hello All,

We want keep track of specific components usage for a particular period of time. eg: how many users used Properties component in a month time etc..

Is there any possible way to track this?.

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

This kind of task is normally done with an access log. Check the documentation of you application server.

May I ask you how are you going to bind access log entry with specific component?

I don't know if you can bind it to a specific component, but maybe he means something like this:

PanfilovAB

This is info from access logs (note two odd records and absence of information about contained components):


-- click on object properties
POST /webtop/webtop/classic/homecabinet/homecabinet_classic.jsp
GET /webtop/webcomponent/library/properties/properties.jsp


-- permissions tab
POST /webtop/webcomponent/library/properties/properties.jsp


-- history tab
POST /webtop/webcomponent/library/properties/properties.jsp


-- click cancel
POST /webtop/webcomponent/library/properties/properties.jsp
GET /webtop/webtop/classic/homecabinet/homecabinet_classic.jsp

I can't imagine how it's possible to build correct statistics using access logs. This is what IFormRenderListener allows to implement:

My sugesstion with the access log was would require to filter for the specific components (e.g. with a smal perl script). But you are right that there might be not enough information in it. In that case your solution with the FormRenderLogger will help.
