Categorizing adapter endpoint properties
|
|
| okaminer 2005-08-25, 7:48 am |
| Hi
I'm creating my first adapter
When I created the endpoint properties they all seem to be in the GUI
under the same category
How do I seperate the properties in the GUI to different categories?
For example: in the FTP adapter you two group of properties firewall
properties and FTP properties.

You need to tell biztalk the category in your adapter configuration schema
(xsd), by using biztalk adapter framework (BAF) schema extensions, like
this:
<xs:schema xmlns:baf="BiztalkAdapterFramework.xsd"
xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003"
elementFormDefault="unqualified"
id="TransmitHandler"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
....
<xs:element default="false" name="logMessages"
type="xs:boolean">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<baf:designer>
<baf:category>Endpoint Configuration</baf:category>
<baf:displayname>Log to Event Log</baf:displayname>
<baf:description>Indicates whether to log an entry
on the Application Event Log for each message transmitted</baf:description>
</baf:designer>
</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
....
Notice the <baf:category> element...

| Hi first of all thanks a lot for replying
Second, may be it is because I'm new but bare with me.
Let say I have two section in the TransportLocation schema
1) Destination
a) Path
b) FileName
2) Credentials
a) User
b) Password
I do I Insert this parameters in the schema you have just given me?
Again thanks a lot

| Correction for my last reply
I try to create the TransmitLocation schema and not the
TransportLocation (Because there isn't one)

No. I didn't post a complete schema, just the relevant portion. Create your
schema normally, then just add for each element (i,e,, each of the fields
you are defining) the necessary annotations to add description and category
to it, which is what I showed how to do with my schema fragment.
