Quoting factory

A quoting factory manages the classes that implement quote management, storage, and retrieval. A quoting factory implements the gw.quoting.QuotingFactory interface. PolicyCenter provides a demonstration implementation of this interface at gw.quoting.impl.DefaultQuotingFactory. Use this Gosu class as a basis for developing your own implementation of the following methods:

  • createQuoteDataManager – Creates a quote data manager object, which controls conversion to XML, storage, retrieval, and conversion from XML of quote data.
  • createQuoteConverter – Creates a quote converter object, which creates XML quote data from a policy period and associated entity instances, and reconstitutes entity instances from the XML.
  • createQuoteStore – Creates a quote store object, which stores, locates, and retrieves XML quote data in an external database.
