3.20.3 Initialization

  • Article

When an instance is created, the instance SHOULD obtain the value of the creating server's Locale ADM element through an implementation-dependent<20> interface and store that value in its own Locale ADM element. It SHOULD then populate its ADM (with the exception of the DefaultWindowsDriverUpdateEntry ADM element) from update metadata obtained from the update agent through an implementation-dependent<21> interface. Localized data SHOULD be retrieved in the locale identified by the Locale ADM element.

If the WindowsDriverUpdateEntries ADM element is not NULL, the DefaultWindowsDriverUpdateEntry SHOULD be initialized as follows:

  • If the WindowsDriverUpdateEntries ADM element contains exactly one item, the DefaultWindowsDriverUpdateEntry SHOULD be initialized to point to that item.

  • If the WindowsDriverUpdateEntries ADM element contains more than one item, the DefaultWindowsDriverUpdateEntry SHOULD be initialized to point to one of those items, as determined in an implementation-dependent<22>  manner.
