Configure properties for EJB imports

The properties of an EJB import can be edited as required from the assembly editor using the Properties view.

The following properties of the EJB import can be edited:

Description

From the Description tab in the Properties view you can refactor the name of the EJB import as well as the folder name. The display name is not used in the assembly diagram, but it is used in some runtime processes. You can also enter a description for the import for additional clarification if needed. If you leave the Synchronize with the name field box selected, the name and the display name will remain the same.

Details

From the Details tab in the Properties view you can edit component's interfaces and partner references. A tree view lists all the interfaces and references. Select one of them to display its properties in a Details page, a Qualifiers page, and an Event Monitor page.

Qualifiers

From the Qualifiers tab in the Properties view you can set the Quality of Service (QoS) for the components. An application communicates its QoS needs to the runtime environment by specifying service qualifiers. They govern the interaction between a service client and a target service. Click Options to set or edit the service options for the EJB import.

Binding

From the Binding tab in the Properties view you can edit the binding information for the EJB import.

  • JNDI name - The JNDI Name is the logical name that an EJB import would use to look up the EJB instance. See the topic Administer EJB bindings in the IBM BPM information center.

  • Data Handler - The data handler provides transformation function for transforming from one form to another. The transformation may map into a provided target or into a new instance of a specified target.
  • Fault Selector - The fault selector generates a fault identifier that can be matched with one of the faults associated with the specific outbound operation.
  • Function Selector - The function selector is an artifact that allows an EJB import to determine which EJB method should be invoked for a given WSDL method on the EJB import. EJB import function selector is the default value and it uses JAX-WS mapping to determine the EJB method. See the IBM BPM information center.
  • Faults configuration - The configuration of the fault handler is optional. By default, JAX-WS data handler configured at the EJB import level is used for all of the faults.

Method bindings are not supported for EJB import bindings.

To edit the properties of an EJB import, follow these steps:


Procedure
