J2C Activation Specifications settings

Use this page to specify the settings for a J2C activation specification.

The resource adapter uses a J2C activation specification to configure a specific endpoint instance. Each application configuring one or more endpoints must specify the resource adapter that sends messages to the endpoint. The application must use the activation specification to provide the configuration properties related to the processing of the inbound messages.
