Overview


In TIBCO Adapter for COM, configuring an adapter instance implies configuring an interceptor or a service component of the adapter.

Configuration Tasks

Use the following sequence to create and configure adapter services.

  1. Start TIBCO Designer and open a multi-file project. See the TIBCO Designer User’s Guide for details.
  2. Drag the COMAdapterConfiguration icon from the palette panel to the design panel. This creates an adapter named, by default, COMAdapterConfiguration.
  3. Define the adapter instance by assigning a new name and optionally change logging options. See Logging Tab for details.
  4. Specify whether you want to configure an interceptor or a service component of the adapter. To do so, in the Configuration tab, select one of the following from the Component Type drop-down:
    • Interceptor, to configure an interceptor component.
    • Service, to configure a service component.
  5. Under the Import Schema tab, browse to select a type library and click Import Metadata. The Import Schema tab is available when you select the Advanced Services folder in the project panel.
  6. Define the options under the Adapter Services tab and the General tab.
  7. Add a service to the adapter instance by selecting the Adapter Services folder and dragging the service icon from the palette panel and dropping it in the design panel.
  8. Define the configuration, transport, and schema options for the service.
  9. Repeat step 2 through step 8 for each adapter service that you want to configure.

  10. Export the project as a local repository and exit TIBCO Designer.

After configuring the adapter, you must create the run-time adapter property file and add the project name and adapter instance name. See Set Properties in Properties File for details.
