Create an SCA Import to invoke the IMS service: option 1
You can create an SCA Import with EIS Binding that will use DataObjects to store the message/data to communicate with the IMS system.
To create an SCA Import to invoke the IMS service, follow these steps:
- Create a new business integration module project to house this new IMS service.
- To create the EIS service, go to File > New > Other > Business Integration > External Service.
- This wizard allows you to import a service from an EIS system.
It is very similar to the WebSphere Studio Application Developer
Integration Edition wizard that created the WSIF-based EIS service in 5.1. You can import the new J2C IMS resource adapter in this wizard.
You should browse to the directory where IBM Integration Designer is installed and drill down to Resource Adapters > ims15 > imsico9102.rar.
See the Information Center for more information on completing the saving properties and operations panels. During the External Service wizard, when you add an operation you will also be able to create business objects for the input or output data type of the operation. This requires that you have the C or COBOL source file that you used in the WebSphere Studio Application Developer Integration Edition wizard. These files should have been copied to the old service project so that you can point to the source files there. You can also import the business objects using the separate wizard File > New > Other > Business Integration > External Data.
- Once you have completed the wizard, open the Business Integration perspective and expand the module so that you can see its contents. You should see new business objects listed under the module's Data and new interfaces listed under Interfaces.
- Open the Assembly Editor by double-clicking the first item under the module project (it will have the same name as the project). You should see that an Import exists on the canvas, the Import has an EIS Binding, and it represents the service that you just created.
