Setting global properties for operations and creating wrapper business objects

After you have selected database objects in the external service wizard, you need to specify properties that apply to all business objects.


Procedure

  1. When the Selected objects list in the Find Objects in the Enterprise System window contains all the business objects you want to use in your application, except for wrapper business objects, click Next.

  2. In the Specify Composite Properties window, review the list of operations. This list contains the operations that the adapter supports for the inbound services. To add to the list of operation includes operations for all business objects you selected on the previous window.

    The specified operations are set for all business objects that are generated.

  3. To remove an operation that you do not need, select the operation name and click Remove. If reinstate a deleted operation, click Add and restore a removed operation.

  4. To create a wrapper business object:

    You can use wrapper objects when a table has multiple primary keys and you want to retrieve multiple records from this table. To unset a primary key column use the unsetValueKeyWord property.

    1. In the Wrapper object names area, click Add.

    2. In the Add Value window, type the name of your wrapper business object and then click OK. Do not use spaces. The name can contain national language characters.

    3. In the Table, view, synonym, or nickname child objects for the selected wrapper object area, click Add.

    4. In the Add Value window, select one or more business objects to include in the wrapper and then click OK.

    5. In the Service functions for selected wrapper object area, click Add.

    6. In the Add Value window, select one or more operations that you want to perform on the wrapper object and then click OK.
    7. Repeat this procedure for each wrapper business object you want to create. The following figure displays the Specify Composite Properties window with one wrapper business objects defined.

  5. In the Business object namespace field, accept the default namespace or type the full name of another namespace.

    The namespace is prefixed to the business object name to keep the business object schemas logically separated. For more information about this property, see Business object namespace (BONameSpace).

  6. Optional: In the Folder field, type the relative path to the folder where the generated business objects are to be stored.

    If you are creating multiple adapter artifacts within a module, ensure that you specify different business object folders for each adapter within the module.

    For example, if you are creating artifacts for Oracle, JDBC, SAP, and JDE within a module, you need to create different relative folders for each of these adapters. If you do not specify different relative folders, the existing artifacts are overwritten when you generate new artifacts.

  7. If you want a business graph to be created for each business object, select the Generate a business graph for each business object check box. Business graphs are needed only when adding business objects to a module created with a version of IBM Integration Designer earlier than version 7.5.0.2

    Select this option if you are adding business objects to a module that was created with an earlier version of IBM Integration Designer. Otherwise, you must rewire your interface.

  8. When you are finished, click Next.


Results

You have provided information that applies to all business objects in the module.


What to do next

Continue working in the wizard. The next step is to specify deployment information to use at run time and information for saving the service as a module.
