Custom attribute mapping is performed in these tabs. When the
attribute is selected, select the Advanced Mapping check
box, and input your script in the edit window. Remember that after
we have done all processing necessary, assign the result
value achieved to ret.value, for example:
...
ret.value = myResultValue;
Alternatively, in Tivoli Directory Integrator V7.1 you
may use the keyword return followed by the simple value
you would like to pass as result:
return "mystring";
Connector Hooks
Hooks give you the means to respond to certain events that occur, and override the basic functionality of a Connector. We have access
to the global objects when scripting Hooks, although some of the
standard objects might not be available in every Hook. For details
on temporary object availability, see "AssemblyLine and Connector
mode flowcharts" in IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator V7.1 Reference
Guide. You also have
full control over the environment, the AssemblyLine, the Connector, entries and attributes. Hooks give you a diversity of control points
for customizing the process flow. See AssemblyLine flow and Hooks.
