ContactManager plugins for broadcasting of contact changes

ContactManager uses three plugins and an API to broadcast contact updates and changes to the Guidewire core applications. The registries for the plugins are ClaimSystemPlugin.gwp, PolicySystemPlugin.gwp, and BillingSystemPlugin.gwp. The base ContactManager application provides plugin implementations that ContactManager can use to communicate with ClaimCenter, PolicyCenter, and BillingCenter. The plugin implementations are:

gw.plugin.claim.cc1000.CCClaimSystemPlugin
gw.plugin.policy.pc1000.PCPolicySystemPlugin
gw.plugin.billing.bc1000.BCBillingSystemPlugin

To enable ContactManager to communicate with the Guidewire core applications you have installed, you configure the application plugin registry corresponding to each installed application by specifying the corresponding plugin implementation. Then ContactManager can then send updates by calling each application’s ContactAPI web service, which implements the interface ABClientAPI. At that point, the application handles the update in its ContactAPI implementation of ABClientAPI.
