Recompiling control strings

Map control strings should be recompiled any time the corresponding map is changed or any time the related source or target document definition is changed. Changes are not available to the translator component of WebSphere Partner Gateway until the recompile has been successfully completed and the new control string has been exported to the database accessed by the translator component.

The following steps describe how to recompile map control string.

  1. Open the Control Strings list window by clicking the Mapping button on the Data Interchange Services client navigator bar and selecting the Control Strings tab.
  2. Select one or more map control strings in the Control Strings list window.
  3. Click the Compile button on the toolbar, or select Compile from the Actions menu.

Data Interchange Services client recompiles the selected control strings and displays an Execution Status window. When Data Interchange Services client is finished recompiling, a message appears on the Execution Status window indicating that the compile has been completed. You can click the Cancel button on the Execution Status window to terminate the compile function.

In addition to recompiling the map control string, you must also copy it to the database accessed by the translator component of WebSphere Partner Gateway. This is commonly done using the export and import functions.
