Message flow projects and files

You develop message flows in the Broker Application Development perspective. Message flow resources are maintained within message flow projects. A message flow project compiles to one or more deployable flows.

Message flow projects contain the following resource files:
.msgflow files
A message flow file is a graphical representation of a message flow, containing message nodes and connections. It also contains property values and overrides to define, implement and control the behavior of the message flow nodes. The New Message Flow Wizard automatically creates this file.

Default editor: Message Flow editor

.esql file
(Optional) ESQL modules containing compute, filter, and database ESQL functions and procedures. If none of the message flows defined in the project include any nodes that require ESQL, you do not need to create an ESQL file.

Default editor: ESQL editor

.msgmap file
(Optional) Mapping transformation descriptions for messages and databases. If none of the message flows defined in the project include any nodes that require mappings, you do not need to create a mapping file.

Default editor: Message Mapping editor

You can define more than one message flow, each in a separate .msgflow file, in the same message project.
