Message Sets: Configuring logical properties: Message model objects

You can configure the logical properties of an object that has previously been added to the message model.

Before you start:

You must have completed the following tasks:

Message Sets: Creating a message set
Message Sets: Creating a message definition file
Message Sets: Opening an existing message definition file
Message Sets: Adding MRM message model objects (You must have added one or more objects to your message model)

To configure the logical properties of an object that is part of the message model:

Switch to the Integration Development perspective.
Ensure that the Outline view is visible in the Integration Development perspective of the IBM® Integration Toolkit and is displaying the following information:
- The name of the message definition file
- Messages
- Types
- Groups
- Elements and Attributes
If the Outline view is not visible, from the IBM Integration Toolkit menu, click Window > Show View > Outline. If the information listed above is not displayed, ensure that the message definition file is open in the Message Definition editor. Message definition files have an .mxsd file extension.
In the Outline view, select the message model object for which you want to configure the logical properties:
1. Depending on the type of the object that you are selecting, expand Messages, Types, Groups or Elements and Attributes as appropriate by clicking +.
2. Click the object that you want to select within the expanded node.
Display the Properties tab of the Message Definition editor by clicking Properties in the lower-left corner of the editor area. The Properties Hierarchy displays the following nodes:
- Logical Properties
- Physical Properties
- Documentation
The type (for example, Local Element or Global Element) of the message model object that you selected in the Outline view is displayed under each of these nodes.

If the items under Logical Properties are not in view, expand Logical Properties by clicking +.
Display the logical properties of the selected object in the Details view of the Message Definition editor, by clicking the appropriate item under Logical Properties.
Configure the logical properties of the selected item to your requirements by making the appropriate changes to the information shown in the Details view.
Save your changes by clicking File > Save message_definition_file.mxsd or by pressing Ctrl+S. Alternatively click FileSave All or press Ctrl+Shift+S.
