Adding interfaces to the components

Now you will wire all created components together using the related interfaces. To accomplish this, you will add one or more interfaces to the component and then wire the related components together in the assembly editor.

The following tasks show you how to add the interfaces to the components:

Adding the interface to the mainProcess component

To add mainProcessInterface to the mainProcess component, follow these steps:
  1. Switch to the assembly editor.
  2. Click the mainProcess component.
  3. Click Add Interface, which is the Add Interface button. The Add Interface window opens.
  4. From the list, select mainProcessInterface and click OK.

Adding the interface to the CreditCheck component

To add CreditCheckInterface to the CreditCheck component:
  1. In the assembly editor, click the CreditCheck component.
  2. Click Add Interface, which is the Add Interface button. The Add Interface window opens and you will see a list in the window with Java and Web Services Description Language (WSDL) interfaces that are available for you to use in your applications. WSDL is the default interface type in WebSphere Integration Developer, used for describing web services.
  3. Only the WSDL interfaces will be used in the loan application, so you may reduce the number of choices by clicking Show WSDL. From the reduced list, select CreditCheckInterface and click OK.

Adding the remaining interfaces to the components

To add LoanLimitsRuleInterface to the LoanLimits component, and interfaces to the human tasks:
Component Interface Added
LoanLimits LoanLimits LoanLimitsRuleInterface
FollowUpDeclinedApp FollowUpDeclinedApp FollowUpHTInterface
ProcessTheApplication ProcessTheApplication ProcessAppHTInterface
CompleteTheLoan CompleteTheLoan CompleteLoanHTInterface
Now that you have interfaces bound to each component, you will wire the components together.
