Author Access Variables From Transform Map

Does anyone know if there is a way to access variables from my orchestration
inside a scripting functiod. Or if there is any way to call my scripting
functiod function from inside an expression shape in my orchestration?

Hi,

The Transform is ran as XSLT in runtime and you cannot access any of the
variables or context values from Orchestration. If you want any data in the
map, then you have to persist it in the physical xml sent into the map.

I'm not sure what your requirement is or why you want to do this. One idea
is to write the functiod as an external assembly, so that you can call the
same function from Orchestration.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, I was just trying to avoid using an external assembly. Because when
i do that my boss will question why were using biztalk, and why don't we do
everything in the assembly.

Hi

We have in fact used External Assemblies inside of our Map. This connects to
the DB2 database on AS/400 and returns some values.

It works really cool....We have lots of method calls in external assembly
called from inside of Map...

But of course it depends on your situation and what you are trying to acheive
Instead of buying Adapters for IBM which just did work around..with external
assembly...

Hope this helps..
