Use the Resource Adapter pane

The Resource Adapter pane displays information that is stored in the <resourceadapter> element of the ra.xml file.

You can navigate to this pane by clicking ResourceAdapter in the Components section of the Overview pane or by clicking the ResourceAdapter tab at the bottom of the pane.

The following section describes the Resource Adapter pane:

Resource adapter pane

The General Information section allows you to specify deployment descriptor values for the entire resource adapter. This section displays the name of the ResourceAdapter class with which this deployment descriptor is associated. This class must directly or indirectly implement the javax.resource.spi.ResourceAdapter interface.

The Components section provides navigation links to other parts of the editor. The Resource Adapter pane displays links to the Outbound Adapter and Inbound Adapter panes.

The Config Properties section allows you to specify resource-adapter-level configuration properties. By default, all configuration properties inherited by the class specified in the Resource Adapter Classname field in the General Information section are shown here. You can specify default values for these inherited properties. In addition, you can add or delete your own user-defined configuration properties using the Add and Remove buttons on the left side of the editor. You can also edit these properties using the widgets on the right side of the editor.

Add Config property dialog

When you add, modify, or delete user-defined properties in this section, the editor creates (or removes) the corresponding JavaBeans properties in your code. See Modify properties.

The Admin Objects section allows you to specify administered objects for this resource adapter and configure their properties. You can add, update, or delete administered objects and specify properties for each object. The information you specify here is stored at the resource adapter level of the deployment descriptor.

The Security Permissions section allows you to specify the permissions required by the resource adapter to process within the application server. You can add, update, or delete security permissions. The information you specify here is stored at the resource adapter level of the deployment descriptor.

You can change or delete the existing value for Permission Class only by using the browse button provided. You cannot delete the permission class from the text field directly.
