Overview of custom ODA modification

If you have a custom ODA and you modify its start script but the message files include a prefix, the ODA may not start with Adapter Framework 2.6. The procedure below describes how to complete the migration by fixing this problem.

Steps for custom ODA modification

To enable a custom ODA with prefixed message files to start with Adapter Framework 2.6, do the following:

  1. Create a new file oda.dd.xml that contains the following:
     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
         - <oda>
              - <startup>
                     <messagefile prefix="<prefix_>" /> 
                </startup>
          </oda>
    

    where the values of the prefix_ attribute specifies the prefix.

  2. Save this file to the ODA directory.
