Generate MFS SCA services
For an MFS application to be a service that business integration developer can integrate into a BPEL process in IBM Integration Designer, you must generate an MFS SCA service.
To generate an SCA service for an MFS application, use the IMS™ TM resource adapter in IBM Integration Designer. The resource adapter takes an MFS source file as the input and generates the required information:
- SCA-style input data binding
- SCA-style output data binding
- An XSD file for business graph information
- An XSD file for input and output message format information
A business integration developer can create a mediation flow by using the generated output files.
- Create a new external service from a conversational MFS application
You must first generate the required SCA service files from the MFS source file by creating a new external service.
