Adapter Service--Configuration Tab

After creating an adapter service, you have to specify the general information for the adapter service. You can use the Configuration tab in the Adapter Services panel to do the configuration.

The general information of an adapter service includes the following:
  • Service name and description
  • Transport options
  • Schema

Each panel of the adapter service Configuration tab provides specific configuration resources.

Service Name and Description

In the Configuration panel, you can specify a service name and description.

The following table lists the fields and descriptions in the Configuration panel.

Name Description
Name Name of an adapter service.
Description (Optional) Description of the adapter service.

Transport options

In the Transport panel, you can specify transport options. The transport options include the transport type, destination or subject, wire format, delivery mode (JMS transport only), session reference, and endpoint reference used by an adapter service.

When you add a service to an adapter, the adapter user interface automatically creates a corresponding session and an endpoint, depending on the transport protocol and delivery mode being used. For details about sessions and endpoints, see TIBCO Adapter SDK documentation.

For details about the transport options, see Transport Options.

Class reference

In the Schema panel, you can specify the class reference. The class reference points to an Active Enterprise (AE) schema used by an adapter service.

When you add a service with a schema object, the adapter user interface transforms the schema information into the AE schema. Different from a database schema, an AE schema is recognized by TIBCO Adapter SDK.

For details about the class reference, see Class Reference.
