Connectors consist of two parts: the connector framework and the application-specific component. The connector framework, whose code is common to all connectors, acts as an intermediary between the integration broker and the application-specific component. The application-specific component contains code tailored to a particular application or technology (in this case, Oracle applications). The connector framework provides the following services between the integration broker and the application-specific component:
This chapter describes the connector component of the WebSphere Business Integration Server Express Adapter for Oracle Applications. It contains the following sections:
Note that this document contains information about both the connector framework and the application-specific component. It refers to both of these as the connector. For more information about the relationship of the integration broker to the connector, see the System Administration Guide.
