Oracle® Application Server Integration Adapter for CICS Installation and User's Guide 10g (9.0.4) Part Number B10301-01 |
|
Oracle Studio includes a wizard to help define the adapter inbound and outbound interactions and input and output structures used for these interactions. The interactions and input and output structures are maintained as metadata in the Metadata perspective of Oracle Studio.
This appendix contains the following section:
Use Oracle Studio to maintain the metadata for the CICS adapter.
The metadata editor opens, displaying the General tab, with general table details. The following tabs are used to edit the metadata:
The following tab provides an XML representation of the metadata:
Use the General tab to maintain information generally describing the adapter and the connection to it.
The General tab has the following fields:
Adapter definition name - The name of the adapter definition.
Description - An identifying description of the adapter.
Version - The adapter version.
Vendor - The vendor which the adapter came from.
Authentication mechanism - The authentication to access the adapter. The available mechanisms are:
Max request size - The maximum size in bytes for an XML request or reply. Larger messages are rejected with an error.
Max active connections - The maximum number of simultaneous connections for an adapter (per process).
Max idle timeout - The maximum time, in seconds, that an active connection can stay idle. After that time, the connection is closed.
Adapter Specifications - Adapter-specific properties.
Use the Interaction tab to define the general details of the interaction in addition to its input and output definitions.
The Interaction tab has the following fields:
Interaction name - The name of the interaction.
Description - A descriptive identifier for the interaction.
Mode - The interaction mode:
Input record - Identifies an input record.
Output record - Identifies an output record for the results of an outbound interaction.
Interaction Specific Parameters - Defines the property and value of parameters specific to the interaction. For each interaction you must specify the following property:
program - The name of the program that is executed for the interaction.
Use the Schema General tab to define the general details of the input and output record structures for the interaction.
The Schema General tab has the following fields:
Schema name - The name of the adapter.
Version - The schema version.
Header - A C header, file to map between the data structure and the adapter.
Use the Schema Record tab to define the input and output record structures for the interaction.
The Schema Record tab has the following fields:
The Fields List defines single data items within a record.
Name - The name of the field.
Type - The datatype of the field. The following are valid datatypes:
Binary
Boolean
Byte
Date
Double
Enum
Float
Int
Long
Numeric[(p[,s])]
Short
String
Time
Timestamp

Appendix B, "Datatype Support" for details about the mapping from COBOL datatypes to Oracle Connect for CICS datatypes |
Length - The size of the field including a null terminator, when the datatype supports null termination (such as the cstring datatype).
Use the Specifications box to specify field properties.
The Source tab displays the XML representation of the adapter metadata.
