Reference bindings are used by other WebSphere® Business Integration SCA
components to access the adapter. You create a reference to the adapter from
the project module by linking the adapter to other server processes. This
is required in a testing environment only. It is not necessary when deploying
the adapter in a production environment.
Before you begin
An adapter project must be created and configured on your workspace.
Why and when to perform this task
Once an adapter
project is created, you must generate reference bindings to bind to the service
component.
Steps for this task
- From the WebSphere Integration Developer main window under All
Resources, select the module name for your project.
- Double-click on your project folder. The project module
appears in the upper-right pane.
- Select the Import icon. Hold
your cursor over the icons on the left side of the pane until you find the
icon that you want. When you select the Import icon, several more icons appear.
- Double-click on the Standalone References icon. The Standalone Reference box appears in the right pane.
- Drag and drop the yellow bulb around the Standalone Reference box
onto the Import Module to bind them.
- From the Add Wire dialog box, click OK.
- Save the outbound service type file.
