Deleting ESQL for a node

If you delete a node from a message flow, you can delete the ESQL module that you created to customize its function.

Before you start

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

To delete ESQL code:

  1. Switch to the Broker Application Development perspective.
  2. Open the message flow that you want to work with by double-clicking it in the Navigator view. The message flow is opened in the editor view.
  3. Select the node for which you want to delete the ESQL module, right-click and click Open ESQL. The ESQL file is opened in the editor view, with the module for this node highlighted.
  4. Press the Delete or backspace key to delete the whole module.
  5. When you have finished working with this module, you can close the ESQL file. Save the file before you close it to retain all your changes. Save also validates your ESQL: see Saving an ESQL file.

If you prefer, you can open the ESQL file directly by double-clicking it in the Navigator view. The ESQL file is opened in the editor view. Select the module that you want to delete from the Outline view and delete it as described above. You can also right-click on the module name in the Navigator view (the modules in the ESQL file are visible if you expand the view of the file by clicking the + beside the file name) and click Delete.
