ICRF

Purpose

For use with EDI systems to identify message envelopes.

Methods

Binding name: p6.icrf

Method: int getNextISA(String name)

Increments the named X.12 Interchange Control Reference returning its new value. If the named reference is not found then it will be created automatically.

Method: String getNextISAStr(String name)

Increments the named X.12 Interchange Control Reference returning its new value as a zero padded string. If the named reference is not found then it will be created automatically.

Method: long getNextUNB(String name)

Increments the named EDIFACT Interchange Control Reference returning its new value. If the named reference is not found then it will be created automatically.

Method: String getNextUNBStr(String name)

Increments the named EDIFACT Interchange Control Reference returning its new value as a zero padded string. If the named reference is not found then it will be created automatically.

The minimum value of a named ICRF is 1 and the maximum is 999999999 (X.12) or 99999999999999 (EDIFACT).

The ICRF manager is implemented as a JMX MBean.

A JMX Console like Hawtio or Jconsole may be used for finer control of ICRF values.

ICRF JMX

Note

ICRF values are persisted so preserving their values beyond a restart.

Example

(1..100).each {
    println p6.icrf.getNextISAStr("myicrf")
}
