About this task
The channel component has been restructured in
IBM® WebSphere® Multichannel Bank
Transformation Toolkit version
8.0. In addition
to
ChannelRequest and
ChannelResponse,
which help to achieve protocol and channel independency, there are
some other changes in structure and code, including:
- In WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 4.3, CSReqServlet implements
the ChannelDriver interface. In WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 8.0, CSReqServlet is
only a servlet and does not implement the ChannelDriver interface.
- In WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 7.0, the BTTChannelDriver class
was introduced, which implements the ChannelDriver interface.
In WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 8.0, the BTTChannelDriver class
is still used to implement the ChannelDriver interface.
- Because the BTTChannelDriver class implements
the ChannelDriver interface in WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 8.0, some
functions and methods in CSReqServlet are not in ChannelDriver.
To migrate channel code, you must change some methods and
logic to the classes in WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 8.0.
