This topic describes how you would create a message category file.
Before you start:
To complete this task, you must
have completed the following tasks:
To create a new message category file:
- Switch to the Broker Application Development
perspective.
- Open the New Message Category File wizard
by right-clicking in the Resource Navigator then clicking New >
Message Category File on the pop-up menu.
Tip: To
preselect the message set when the wizard opens, either right-click the message
set to which you are adding the message category file, or select the message
set, before opening the wizard as just described.
- In the first pane, select the Category
Kind for the type of category that you are creating.
- other. Indicates that
this Message Category represents a generic grouping of messages. The Category
Usage field is disabled.
- wsdl. Indicates that
this Message Category represents a WSDL operation. The specified Category
Name will become the WSDL operation name.
- If the Category Kind has
been set to wsdl, specify the
WSDL operation type by selecting one of the following values for the Category Usage field:
- wsdl:request-response
- wsdl:solicit-response
- wsdl:one-way
- wsdl:notification
- Click Next. In the Message Set
Folder field, select a folder under the target message set for
the new message category file to be saved.
- In the File name field, type a name for
the new message category file (It will automatically be given the file extension
of .category).
Click Next. Select any messages
that you want to add to the new category. Use Shift-click to
select a range of messages and Ctrl-click to select
or deselect individual messages. You cannot complete the creation of the category
file without adding one or more messages and setting the Role Type and Role
Usage values of each message correctly.
- Click Finish. A message
category file is created within the message set folder that you selected,
with the name that you specified and a file extension of .category.
The new message category file opens in the Message Category editor
so that you can view and edit it as required.
