The connector passes business objects between the integration
broker and protocol handlers. It sends request business objects to
a protocol handler and receives response business objects from
protocol handlers. However, it does not process any of the data in
the business objects.
When an integration broker passes a business object to the
connector, the connector performs the following operations:
- Extracts the request business object from the top-level
business object. The connector expects the request business object
to be the first child business object that does not have a value of
CxIgnore or CxBlank.
- Sends the request business object to a protocol handler.
- When the protocol handler returns the response business object,
the connector adds the response business object to the top-level
business object and returns the complete top-level business object
to the integration broker.
