The <transport> pipeline configuration element

Specifies handlers that are to be invoked only when a particular transport is in use.

Used in:

  • Service provider
  • Service requester

Contained by:

Contains:

In a service provider:
  1. An optional <default_transport_handler_list> element
  2. An optional <default_http_transport_handler_list> element
  3. An optional <default_mq_transport_handler_list> element
  4. Zero, one, or more <named_transport_entry> elements
In a service requester:
  1. An optional <default_target> element. The <default_target> contains a URI that CICS uses to locate the target web service when the service requester application does not provide a URI. In many cases, however, the URI of the target will be provided by the service requester application, and whatever you specify in the <default_target> will be ignored. For example, service provider applications that are deployed using the CICS web services assistant normally get the URI from the web service description.
  2. An optional <default_http_transport_handler_list> element
  3. An optional <default_mq_transport_handler_list> element
  4. An optional <default_transport_handler_list> element

If any of the configuration elements are used, they must be used in the sequential order that they are listed.

Example

<transport>
  <default_transport_handler_list>
  ... 
  </default_transport_handler_list>
</transport>
