IT30112: SUBFLOW UDP SET AS EMPTY WHEN OVERRIDDEN GETS IGNORED AT RUNTIME

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Values from baroverride not applied in subflow.
  
  when deploy/run application, Java Compute node does not get the
  override values but gets the default value set in the UDP
  property in the main flow.
  
  UDP is being overridden correctly with mqsiapplybaroverride but
  the value in the flow is still being used, not the one in the
  broker.xml file.
  
  Scenario:
  
  Main Flow : MQInput --->Subflow( UDP "TestProperty" Value set to
  Default2Value) --->MQOutput
  
  Subflow : Input-->Java Compute Node -->Output ( UDP
  "TestProperty" is unset or empty)
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V11 using bar file
  overrides on UDPs set on subflows.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  When a bar file override is used to change the value of a User
  Defined Property (UDP) on a message flow or subflow, the file
  representing message flow or subflow within the bar file is not
  modified but the updated value is stored within the deploy
  descriptor file (broker.xml) within the bar file. When the bar
  file is deployed and the runtime reads the contents of the
  message flow and subflow files, it creates 'links' from the
  UDP's on the subflow/messageflows to the values in the deploy
  descriptor. When the runtime creates a subflow instance from the
  subflow definition, the links for the UDPs are not being copied
  when the subflow has a namespace (i.e. it is defined within a
  shared library).
  

Problem conclusion

• The runtime correctly copies namespaced UDP links when a subflow
  instance is created.
