RPC Adapter Configuration Editor
When you use Rational Software Delivery Platform tooling to expose classes and methods as an RPC Adapter service, a RpcAdapterConfig.xml file is generated in your WEB-INF folder. You can further customize the RPC Adapter service by double-clicking this file, which loads it into a visual XML editor called the RPC Adapter Configuration Editor:
The RPC Adapter Configuration Editor enables you to modify the structure of the RPC adapter by searching for and selecting items from drop down lists. Some of the things you can do with this editor include:
The code that is generated by your changes can be viewed in the XML source file by clicking on the editor's Source tab. You can also make changes in the Source editor tab directly.
- Adding to or removing items from services
- Adding or removing items from validators
- Exposing additional Java™ classes
- Modifying method names, HTTP methods, and descriptions
- Modifying validator identifiers, validation classes and validation regex
A powerful feature of the RPC Adapter Editor is that it will automatically invoke other wizards to help you configure your settings. For example, if you add an item to services (by clicking on Services and then clicking the add button) the Add Item dialog appears.
Note: The items available in the list will differ depending on which version of the Server-side technologies facet you have installed in your project. Server-side technologies facet version 1.0 does not support EJB services. To check the facet version, right-click your Web project and select
Properties. In the Properties list, click
Project Facets. In the Project Facet list, expand
Web 2.0.
By selecting an item in this dialog and clicking on the OK button, the Expose RPC Adapter wizard appears, which enables you to configure the selected item:
