Dragging a resource from the Broker Development view

This topic describes what you can achieve by dragging a resource from the Broker Development view: drag a resource to an empty canvas to create a new node, or drag a resource onto an existing node to modify that node. The following resources are supported:
  • An ESQL file
  • A Java file
  • A subflow
  • An XSL file
  1. Switch to the Broker Application Development perspective.
  2. Open the message flow with which you want to work.
  3. Drag one of the supported resources from the Broker Development view onto the canvas.
    • If you drop the resource on an empty canvas, a node is created and configured automatically.
      The following table shows the results when you drag a resource from the Broker Development view onto an empty canvas:
      Resource Node created Property set
      ESQL file A Compute node is created ESQL Module
      Java file A JavaCompute node is created Java Class
      XSL file An XSLTransform node is created Stylesheet
    • If you drop the resource onto an existing node, the relevant node property is updated with the name of the resource file. For example, if you drop a Java file onto a JavaCompute node, the Java Class property is set to the class name of the Java file that you are dropping. If you drop an ESQL file over any node that uses ESQL, such as a Database node, the ESQL Module property is set.
