WebSphere® Integration
Developer provides a refactoring feature that handles dependencies when you
rename, move, or change the namespace of an artifact. However, there are some
things that you should take into consideration when refactoring.
Take into account the following when you refactor:
- There are a number of ways that you can rename, move, or change the namespace
of an artifact. The best way to perform these functions is through the refactor
menu. If you use any other means, you will need to manually fix the dependent
artifacts.
- Before you perform a refactoring operation, make sure that you have no
compile errors in the artifact that you are refactoring.
- When you use the refactoring feature to rename an attribute of a business
object, the xmx maps of dependent XSLT mediation primitives are updated to
reflect the change. When you open the map in the XML mapping editor, you will
see the change. However, you need to manually regenerate the xslt file from
the updated xmx map by clicking the Regenerate XSL button in the mediation
primitives properties view.
