Adding a global element

Before you start:

To complete this task, you must have completed the following tasks:

To add a global element to your message model:

  1. Switch to the Broker Application Development perspective.
  2. Ensure that the Outline view is visible in the Broker Application Development perspective of the workbench. If the Outline view is not visible, from the workbench menu, click Window > Show View > Outline.
  3. In the Outline view, right-click Elements and Attributes then click Add Global Element on the pop-up menu. This adds a global element of type string to your message model, and assigns a default name.
  4. Either type a new name for the global element or press Enter to accept the default.

You can now configure the global element to your requirements. For further information on configuring message model objects see Configuring message model objects.
