Tutorial: Initialize CWIC Library

Initialize CWIC Library

Initialize CWIC Library Before using any of the features provided via CWIC, CWIC Library needs to be initialized. CWIC library is initialized through System Controller method. 

        // Calling API to initialize cwic library.
        cwic.SystemController.initialize();
Initialization process is asynchronous process. In order to know when CWIC library is fully initialized event handler for "onInitialized" event must be set, before calling initialize. 

        // Our event handler function for 'onInitialized'
        function onCwicInitialized()
        {
            // Rest of the API can now be called...
        }

        // Registration of event handler.
        cwic.SystemController.addEventHandler('onInitialized', onCwicInitialized);
        cwic.SystemController.initialize();

Handle Initialization Errors

Initialization of CWIC library is complex process. It consists of initializing CWIC components, browser specific plugin (Extension for Google Chrome, NPAPI for Firefox and Safari and ActiveX for Internet Explorer) and Add-on. Initialization of plugin component can fail and in order to track that failure event handler for onInitializationError must be set, before calling initialize. 

        // Our event handler function for 'onInitializationError'
        function onCwicInitializationError(error)
        {
            // Error handling ...
        }

        // Registration of event handler.
        cwic.SystemController.addEventHandler('onInitializationError', onCwicInitializationError);
        cwic.SystemController.initialize();
