Connect EJB rules - Completing the New or Save As form
Use this rule to define and configure a connector to an Enterprise JavaBean on a local or remote system. The services are deployed as Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) within a Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) application server, such as IBM's WebSphere or Oracle WebLogic.
Records can be created in various ways. You can add a new record to your application or copy an existing one. You can specialize existing rules by creating a copy in a specific ruleset, against a different class or (in some cases) with a set of circumstance definitions. You can copy data instances but they do not support specialization because they are not versioned.
Based on your use case, you use the Create, Save As, or Specialization form to create the record. The number of fields and available options varies by record type. Start by familiarizing yourself with the generic layout of these forms and their common fields using the following Developer Help topics:
This information identifies the key parts and options that apply to the record type that you are creating.
Create a Connect EJB rule by selecting Connect EJB from the Integration-Connectors category.
A Connect EJB rule has two key parts:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Apply to | Select the class that this connector rule applies to. |
Service Name | Enter the name of the remote service being called. This value is arbitrary and is only used to distinguish Connect EJB instances from one another. Enter a name that is a valid Java identifier. See How to enter a Java identifier. |
