Repository View

The Contract Repository view shows all TUXEDO services available for use. Services are collected into modules and interfaces and shown in a hierarchical tree. (The tree objects are explained in Table 2-1.)

To open a view of the Contract Repository from within the Active Expert, choose File->Open Repository from the menu bar.

The Repository view consists of the following two panels:

• Object Tree (Top Panel)-The top panel of the Repository view shows all of the TUXEDO objects available in the Contract Repository in a hierarchical tree. The objects are explained in Table 2-1.

• Object Properties (Bottom Panel)-The bottom panel of the Repository view shows properties of the currently selected object. In Figure 2-1, an operation is selected so the attributes of that operation are shown. Clicking on an operation shows operation attributes, which include the input and output buffer types, and if applicable, the input and output view names. Clicking on a parameter shows the associated data type.
