Converting a WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus service definition manually

Use the WSDL file that defines a WebSphere® Enterprise Service Bus service to create resources manually in IBM® Integration Bus.

About this task

The WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus service definitions that you convert must have one of the following WSDL binding styles:
  • document-literal
  • rpc-literal
  • rpc-encoded (This style is not WS-I compliant.)

These WSDL binding styles are supported by IBM Integration Bus.

WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus supports an extra style document encoded, which is not supported in IBM Integration Bus. For more information, see WSDL styles.

In WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, you define a service through two WSDL files that include inline schemas:
  1. An interface WSDL file that describes the operations and corresponding inputs and outputs per operation.
  2. A binding WSDL file that describes the transport data type.

Use the WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus WSDL file that includes the binding details to create a service definition in IBM Integration Bus.

Procedure

  • To convert a WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus service definition into an integration service definition:
  • To convert a WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus service definition into application resources:
    • Use the WSDL that defines your WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus service to define the IBM Integration Bus resources in a message flow application.
    • Create an integration service that is based on a WSDL. For more information, see Creating a solution based on WSDL or XSD files.
