Configure a JavaCompute node named
SelectFunction
.
Before you begin
Run the WebSphere® ESB
conversion tool to convert a mediation
that contains a function selector.
About this task
In WebSphere Enterprise Service
Bus, the export binding function selector is used to
determine which interface operation should be invoked when a message is received by the export
binding.
To achieve the same result in IBM® Integration Bus, the conversion tool creates
a JavaCompute node named SelectFunction
.
Configure this node as follows:
Procedure
-
In IBM Integration Toolkit, open the subflow that contains the JavaCompute node function selector.
-
If necessary, reorder the nodes. Right-click the canvas, select Layout,
and choose a layout.
-
Double-click the JavaCompute node ( called
SelectFunction) to edit it.
The node contains code similar to the following
snippet:
// TODO: The Export_MQ Export selects from the available interface operations
// using the following function selector:
// com.ibm.websphere.sca.mq.selector.impl.Constant
//
// Manually convert the function selector here to select one of the
// available operations:
// callHello, callGoodbye, callAuRevoir
String selectedFunction = "callHello";
// Finally, set the selected operation into the labelName element
DestinationData.createElementAsFirstChild(MbElement.TYPE_NAME_VALUE, "labelName", selectedFunction);
The
available functions are taken from the mediation module, and your code might differ from this
example. The string
selectedFunction
is hard-coded to the first function in the
list of functions from the mediation flow.
-
Write code that replicates the actions of the function selector in the mediation module, to
select one of the available operations.
For example, you might look in the message for a particular transport header.
Results
When this node is correctly configured, the next node in the main message flow, RouteToLabel, looks up the value that has been set, and sends the
message to the appropriate Label node.
