Using error logging from a user-defined extension

Program user-defined extensions to write entries in the local error log.

About this task

In most circumstances, user-defined extensions should use exceptions to report errors. However, you can provide information about significant events, error or otherwise, for problem determination and operational purposes. The details that you supply are included in predefined message text that is extracted from a message source or catalog.

You can write messages that are defined in the product message catalog (BIPmsgs), to which you can add your own text as an argument. If you prefer, you can create your own message catalog, so that you can create more complex messages, or share a message catalog with other applications. If you want to create your own message catalog, see Creating message catalogs.

The description here covers exceptions that are raised during normal message flow processing. You must also provide for exceptions that are raised when you deploy and configure a message flow. Messages that result from these configuration exceptions are reported back to the IBM® Integration Toolkit for display to the IBM Integration Toolkit user. Create an appropriately-named Java properties file to contain your messages, then copy the file to each computer on which you are running the IBM Integration Toolkit, so that your messages can be displayed.
