Adding a message to a message category

Before you start:

You must have completed the following tasks:

Important: This topic assumes that you have already added one or more messages to your message model.

To add a message to a message category file:

  1. Switch to the Message Category editor, in the Broker Application Development perspective.
  2. In the Properties Hierarchy, open the Add Messages window by right-clicking Message Category and then clicking Add Messages on the pop-up menu. The Add Messages window lists all the messages that are available for adding to the message category file. Any message that is in the message set but has not already been added to the category is displayed.
  3. Select the message or messages that you would like to add. Use Shift-click to select a range of messages and Ctrl-click to select or deselect individual messages.
  4. Click OK. The selected message or messages are added to the message category and now appear in the Properties Hierarchy.
    Tip: Until you save the message category file, you can undo any additions that you make. To undo a change, right-click Message Category in the Properties Hierarchy then click Undo on the pop-up menu. If you have added multiple messages, this removes all the messages that you have added. If you want to remove a single message, right click this message then click Undo. To redo an addition after undoing it, use the Redo option.
  5. Save and validate the additions that you have made to the message category file by clicking File> Save or pressing Ctrl+S.
Note: When you have saved the message category file after adding a message, you can no longer undo the addition of this message using the Undo option. To remove a message after saving your changes, you can do so by deleting the message from the message category file.

When you have added a message to a message category file, you can configure its properties according to your requirements in the Message Category editor Details view.
