Accessing integration node properties from a Mapping node

You can access integration node properties from a Mapping node directly.

About this task

To obtain the value of an integration node property, call the appropriate iib:function_name function from a Custom XPath transform. These functions return a string with the value of the integration node property.

You can use content-assist to select the function name into the general properties of a Custom XPath transform.

Note: In IBM® Integration Bus Version 10, the functions mb:function_name() are deprecated. If you try to use any of these functions, you get a warning message; for example,

The function mb:getLibraryName in XPath
mb:getLibraryName() is deprecated. Use the corresponding "iib:" function
instead.

Procedure

To access integration node properties from a Mapping node, choose one of the following functions:

Call iib:getBrokerName() to get the name of the integration node where the Mapping node that is executing the message map is running.
Call iib:getQueueManagerName() to get the name of the queue manager that is specified for the integration node, where the Mapping node that is executing the message map is running.
Call iib:getNodeName() to get the name of the Mapping node from the Node name property of the node in the message flow.
Call iib:getMessageFlowName() to get the name of the message flow where the Mapping node that is executing the message map is running.
Call iib:getApplicationName() to get the name of the application where the message flow that contains the Mapping node that is executing the message map is running.
Call iib:getLibraryName() to get the name of the library where the message flow that contains the Mapping node that is executing the message map is running.
