The Context object is used for storing contextual information.

A client may communicate contextual information to VMM. For example, when creating a Person, the client application may need to specify the realm to create the Person under. The realm itself is not a part of the Person object's data. Another example is VMM may need the client application to pass in an ip address.

The Context object is used for storing this contextual information. The Context object supports arbitrary key -> object mappings in order to support attributes that are not already pre-defined in the VMM schema

The Context object consists of key-value pair mappings of contextual information.

  • key: specifies the name of a contextual property. The following are two examples of possible keys: realm, ipAddress
  • value: specifies the value of a contextual property. Since value can be a String or any arbitrary object, the type of the property value is anySimpleType. This property can either be a single value or multi-valued.
