WebSphere Adapter for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne

Creating the adapter project in WebSphere Integration Developer

To begin the process of creating a module to communicate with a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne service, you create an adapter project. The adapter project (called a connector project in WebSphere® Integration Developer) contains the adapter itself plus other related artifacts. You create the project by importing the RAR file, which was copied to your local file system during the adapter installation, into WebSphere Integration Developer.

About this task

You can use the same adapter project for multiple tutorials. If you have already created an adapter project by importing the adapter RAR file, you do not need to create it again, unless you want to have separate adapter projects for each tutorial.

How to perform this task

  1. In WebSphere Integration Developer, switch to the J2EE perspective:
    1. Click Window > Open Perspective > Other.
    2. Click J2EE.

      If J2EE is not displayed, select the Show all check box, click J2EE, and click OK.

    3. If you see the Confirm Enablement window, select Always enable capabilities and don't ask me again.

    4. Click OK.
  2. Import the RAR file by right-clicking Connector Projects and clicking Import > RAR file.

  3. Find the RAR file on your local file system by clicking Browse and navigating to the directory in which Adapter for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne was installed.

  4. Accept the default setting (CWYED_JDE.rar) for Connector project.
    The connector project has the same name as the RAR file.
    Note: If a project named CWYED_JDE.rar already exists in this workspace, the name in the Connector project field has a number appended to it (for example, CWYED_JDE1).
  5. Accept the default value in the Target server field.

    The default value is the test environment for WebSphere Process Server, which is installed as part of WebSphere Integration Developer.

  6. Clear the Add module to an EAR project check box.

    Notice that the EAR project field becomes unavailable after you remove the check mark.

  7. Click Finish.

Result

A new J2EE adapter project, named CWYED_JDE, is created. To see its contents, expand CWYED_JDE.
