Adding an HTTP Connection

For this example project, you will add an HTTP connection.

Procedure

  1. Select the SharedResources folder and press Ctrl+N.
    You will see the Select a Wizard dialog. You could also get here y selecting File > New > Other .
  2. Select TIBCO Shared Resources > HTTP Connection and click Next.
  3. In the New HTTP Connection Wizard, name the connection HTTPConnection and click Finish.
    In a real world situation you would probably give the connection a more meaningful name. You will see the HTTP Connection dialog.
    Note: Resource names and directory names in the path to a resource cannot be any of the keywords or other words listed in Rule Language Grammar in TIBCO BusinessEvents Developer’s Guide, and they cannot contain spaces.
  4. In the Host field, enter localhost.
  5. In the Port field, enter 8108. This is the port used in the readme.html for this example.
  6. Save the resource (click the Save button in the toolbar) and close it.
    Note: If you change the port here, change the readme port too. If port 8108 is not free, use an available port in the 8000 range. You must also edit the readme.html that goes with the project.
