Specify resource adapter properties

Resource adapter properties describe the properties that you assign an adapter, and an adapter class.

You name the adapter and qualify its Java™ class with a package name and class prefix.

You perform these tasks in the J2C Resource Adapter Properties window.

Figure 1. J2C Resource Adapter Properties window


Procedure

  1. In Adapter name, type the name of the adapter.

  2. In Adapter shortname, type a one- to four-character short name for the adapter. The short name is used to create the component name that is used in the log and trace files as follows:

    shortname + the characters "RA" + the value of the adapter ID property, which the user specifies when configuring the adapter

    For example, if you specify the short name BO and the user specifies the adapter ID of 001, then the component name used in log and trace files is BORA001.

  3. In Package name, type the package name.

  4. In Class name prefix, type the prefix to be used in adapter class names. Class name displays the resulting fully qualified ResourceAdapter class name.

  5. Click Next to display the Generation Options window to specify the adapter type, operations, and components.

    To create a default connector project without selecting the adapter type, operations, and components, click Finish.


What to do next

You can now specify generation options for your resource adapter.
