All of that is handled automatically by the request handler and the
service engine. The request handler will pass the request parameters to
the service engine. The service engine will put those parameters in the
context along with some other objects, like userLogin, locale, timeZone,
etc.

Thanks for the reply BJ.
Not sure if I was clear in my question. I know where the service is defined,
I also know how services are called etc. But what I dont understand in this
case is where is how is the context passed? e.g every service call needs
context to be passed so in this case, who is creating the context and where,
is the question.

then if you have a xml editor that reads the xsd files you will see
choices.
usually events are in
like:

Hi,
This is probably a basic question - but I could understand how it works.
I am looking at controller.xml file in e-commerce application. Specific
line
is
<request-map uri="emailorder">
<security https="true" direct-request="false"/>
<event type="service" path="async"
invoke="sendOrderConfirmation"/>
...
I see that event is of type service, so the service is invoked when the
uri
is called. However what I dont understand is how are the contexts, both
dispatch context and the values context for the service IN variables,
passed
in this case?
Will appreciate any pointers
