Predefined Service and Channel Modifications

Integration Guide
All request and response processing classes and user exits have access to the
invocation channel request and response objects by using the
IntegrationContext.getCurrentContext() API.
Endpoint The endpoint definition identifies how an invocation channel routes outbound
data to a specific location.
Invocation channel endpoints can be modified by using the
IntegrationContext.getCurrentContext().getProperty(MetaDataPropert
ies.ENDPOINTPROPS)
API. You can use this class when no endpoint is specified
on the invocation channel.
The endpoint name can be passed when the invocation channel invokes the API.
The endpoint name can also be set in the class by using the integration context.
You must set the context API to
IntegrationContext.getCurrentContext().setProperty(MetaDataPropert
ies.ENDPOINT,<endpointname>).
Predefined Service and Channel Modifications
Rather than create a service or channel, you can duplicate predefined services and
channels, and then modify the duplicate record.
You can work with the service configurations to redefine the following
characteristics:
T Classes
T Event filtering
T XSL files
T Processing rules
You can work with the channel configurations to redefine the following
characteristics:
T Classes
T Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) files
T Processing rules
Your modified definitions determine the data source and how the service and
channel handle customized data processing, filtering, and mapping.
Creating an External System
You can create an external system and associate the applicable services and
channels with it.
