Developing message models

This topic area describes the concepts behind message modeling, and the tasks that are involved in working with message models.

If you are unfamiliar with message models, read the topics that describe the concepts; starting with Message modeling. These topics explain why you need to model messages, and describe the message modelling objects that you will use, such as message sets and message definition files.

The WebSphere Message Broker message model is based on XML Schema. For more information on XML Schema, see XML Schema Part 0: Primer.

For a better understanding of the concepts of message modeling using WebSphere Message Broker read Message modeling.

The tasks that are involved in developing message models are:

Tip: The workbench provides a set of toolbar icons that invoke wizards that you can use to create many of the resources that are associated with message models; for example, a new message set. Hover your mouse pointer over a toolbar icon to see its function.

Notice that the workbench lets you open resource files with other editors. However, use only the workbench to edit resource files that are associated with message models because this editor correctly validates all changes that you make to these files.
