Managing Handlers
The HandlersList window displays all the handlers that
are available for use with an action, target, gateway, or fixed
workflow. Both system-supplied handlers (which are labeled Product
in the Provider column) and any user-defined handlers that have been
uploaded are listed.
You can use the HandlersList window to view information about
the available handlers, including the type of handler, its class
name, and whether it is supplied by WebSphere Partner Gateway or
by a user. You can also import or delete a handler.
Importing a handler
To import a new handler into your environment, follow
these steps:
- Click Hub Admin > Hub Configuration > Handlers.
- On the HandlersList window, click Import.
- For File, type the name of an XML file
that represents the handler you want to import, or use the Browse button
to navigate to the file.
- Optionally indicate whether you want the handler committed to
the database. If you click Yes, the handler
will be available for use. If you click No,
the handler will not be available for use. The default is Yes.
- Optionally indicate whether you want the file to overwrite a
file with the same name. If you click Yes, and the file you are
uploading matches the name of an existing handler file, the existing
file will be replaced by the uploaded file. You would use this feature
if changes had been made to a user-supplied handler and you wanted
to replace the existing handler with an updated version. The default is No.
- Click Upload.
After a handler file is uploaded, it appears in the list of available
handlers.
Deleting a handler
To delete a handler, follow these steps:
- Click Hub Admin > Hub Configuration > Handlers.
- On the HandlersList window, click the Delete icon next to the
handler you want to delete.
