OrderPipeline Object

For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.

Method

Description

LoadPipe

Loads a pipeline configuration file (.pcf) into the pipeline.

OrderExecute

Runs the components in the pipeline.

SetLogFile

Identifies the file in which to log pipeline events.

Remarks

The OrderPipeline should be used in Content Selection pipelines because Content Selection pipelines do not require transactions and because the OrderPipeline object is fully re-entrant by multiple threads. Other objects, such as MtsPipeline and MtsTxPipeline, must be used once, destroyed and recreated by each thread due to the rules of COM+ transactions.

The OrderPipeline object can create and run Content Selection pipelines or Order Processing pipelines (OPP); however, it is recommended that you use the OrderPipeline object only to create and run Content Selection pipelines. The OrderPipeline object is the only pipeline object that is not registered under COM+ Services.

The OrderPipeline object is usually created in the file Global.asa and put into an application collection.
