Creating a Java Collaboration Definition

In this task, you create a Java Collaboration using the Collaboration Definition Wizard (Java). Once a Collaboration Definition has been created, the Business Rules of the Collaboration are written using the Collaboration Editor.

   The File Name field now displays receive.

4. Click Next.

5. For Step 3 of the Wizard, from the Select OTDs selection window, double-click CAPS Components Library⇒Adapters⇒BatchAdapter, and select the following three OTDs:

   • BatchFTP

6. From the Select OTDs selection window, double-click CAPS Components Library⇒Adapters⇒File, and select the FileClient OTD.

   The Selected OTDs field now displays the four OTDs.
