Generating An Ibm Websphere Resource Adapter - IBM WebSphere Adapters User Manual

For information on the characteristics of an IBM WebSphere Resource Adapter and
a J2C Resource Adapter, see Introduction to JCA.
Generation Options dialog
From the Adapter Specification drop-down, choose the type of adapter you want
to create:
v Choose IBM WebSphere Resource Adapter in the Adapter Specification list to
generate code that extends the Adapter Foundation Classes.
v Choose J2EE J2CA Resource Adapter in the Adapter Specification list to
generate code that implements the JCA 1.5 interface specification.
The wizard displays the generation options that correspond to your adapter.
What to do next
You are ready to specify generation options that match your adapter requirements.

Generating an IBM WebSphere Resource Adapter

You use the wizard to generate adapter classes that correspond to the adapter
capabilities you require. This involves choosing the types of adapter classes
(outbound, inbound, data binding, or enterprise metadata discovery) you want to
generate and then choosing the component properties associated with the adapter
classes.
The following sections describe the adapter classes and their associated component
properties.
Outbound adapter classes and associated properties
Generating outbound adapter classes creates code (and in some cases sequence of
calls, log and trace messages and comments) for the methods that must be
implemented to produce a resource adapter that can send business events to an
EIS. The list of Adapter Foundation Classes that are extended in your Connector
Project when you choose to generate outbound adapter classes is as follows:
v Connection extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIConnection
v ConnectionFactory extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIConnectionFactory
v ConnectionRequestInfo extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIConnectionRequestInfo
v Interaction extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIInteraction
v InteractionSpec extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIInteractionSpec
v ManagedConnection extends com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIManagedConnection
v ManagedConnectionFactory extends
com.ibm.j2ca.base.WBIManagedConnectionFactory
In addition the following are generated directly from the JCA 1.5 interface
specification:
v ConnectionSpec implements javax.resource.cci.ConnectionSpec
v ConnectionMetaDataImpl implements javax.resource.cci.ConnectionMetaData
v LocalTransaction implements javax.resource.spi.LocalTransaction
