Create DataPower libraries

A DataPower library is an IBM Integration Designer project that is used for the development, version management, and organization of resources targeted for WebSphere DataPower.

The WebSphere DataPower capability must be enabled. For more information, see the related task, Enabling tool capabilities.

To create a DataPower library:

Procedure

1. From the menu, click File > New > DataPower Library. The New Library wizard opens.
2. Provide a name for the library.

3. Optional: The Location field shows where the library files will be saved. Clear the Use default location check box if you want to name another location for the library.

4. If you want to share the library with modules and mediation modules, choose the option to only include a function that is common between IBM BPM, WebSphere ESB, and WebSphere DataPower. If you do not select this option, all of the DataPower functions will be available to you in the XML map editor.

   You can change this option later in the Business Integration view by clicking the library and selecting Properties.

5. Click Next.

6. If you want to have your new library referenced by an integration solution, select the Select an integration solution check box and then select an integration solution from the Integration solution list.

7. If you want to change the business object parsing mode, click Next. You can select both lazy and eager parsing modes for a library. At run time, the parsing mode of the library will be determined by the modules that reference it.

   1. Select one or both parsing modes.

   2. Click Finish.

Results

The DataPower library is created.
