This section describes how to prepare your environment to work with the
examples. In what follows, sample_folder refers to the
folder in which the examples reside, andWBI_folder refers to the
folder containing your current IBM WebSphere Business Integration
installation.
- Create the queues This tutorial requires that six local queues
be defined in WebSphere MQ Workflow queue manager. You create these
either via the WebSphere MQ Explorer application or by typing RUNMQSC
FMCQM at the command line and issuing the following commands:
- DEFINE QL('MQWFCONN.ERROR')
- DEFINE QL('MQWFCONN.ARCHIVE')
- DEFINE QL('MQWFCONN.IN_PROGRESS')
- DEFINE QL('MQWFCONN.REPLYTO')
- DEFINE QL('MQWFCONN.UNSUBSCRIBED')
- DEFINE QL('CWLDINPUTQ')
- Create business object definitions--optional Business
object definition files for the WebSphere MQ Workflow data structures already
exist, but performing this step demonstrates the FDLBORGEN utility, which
converts data structures to business objects. To use this
utility:
- From a command line, change to directory
WBI_folder/connectors/WebSphereMQWorkflow/utilities
- Enter the following:
FdlBorgen -isample_folder/WebSphereMQWorkflow_Samples.fdl -
osample_folder/SampleItem.in -nSampleItem -pMQWF_Structure_ -r3.1.0
FdlBorgen -isample_folder/WebSphereMQWorkflow_Samples.fdl -
osample_folder/SampleItemOrder.in -nSampleItemOrder -pMQWF_Structure_
-r3.1.0
- Load the example business objects into the repository:
- Start IBM WebSphere ICS.
- Create an Integration Component Library inside the WebSphere Business
Integration System Manager.
- Import the Sample_MQWF_Order_Objects.jar from the
Samples folder into the Component Library.
- Note:
- This file is located in the WBI_folder/connectors/WebSphereMQWorkflow/Samples
folder.
- Confirm that the example business objects have been loaded.
- Load the example collaboration template and collaboration objects
into the repository: Similarly, using your WebSphere Business
Integration System Manager, import the repository file named,
sample_MQWF_Order_Collaborations.jar, located in the
WBI_folder/connectors/WebSphereMQWorkflow/Samples folder, into your
Integration Component Library.
- Compile the collaboration template Using your WebSphere
Business Integration System Manager, right-click the folder labeled
Collaboration Templates and select Compile all from the drop down list.
- Restart IBM WebSphere ICS Reboot InterChange Server to ensure
that all changes take effect. Use System Monitor to ensure that all of
the collaboration objects and connector controllers are in a green
state.
