Methods

wrap

wrap(uuid): Promise<ExternalApplication>

It is possible to wrap a process that does not yet exist, (for example, to listen for startup-related events) provided its uuid is already known.
Parameters
- uuid: string
  The UUID of the external application to be wrapped
Returns Promise<ExternalApplication>
Example
```
fin.ExternalApplication.wrap('javaApp-uuid');
.then(extApp => console.log('wrapped external application'))
.catch(err => console.log(err));
```

wrapSync

wrapSync(uuid): ExternalApplication

It is possible to wrap a process that does not yet exist, (for example, to listen for startup-related events) provided its uuid is already known.
Parameters
- uuid: string
  The UUID of the external application to be wrapped
Returns ExternalApplication
Example
```
const extApp = fin.ExternalApplication.wrapSync('javaApp-uuid');
const info = await extApp.getInfo();
