File, data set, or member selection page

Edit online

The File, data set, or member selection page allows you to specify a path and file names for the following items: (a) the new XML converters and converter driver; (b) the new WSDL file and XSD files; and (c) the generation properties files.

Overwrite files
This checkbox indicates that the wizard overwrites without warning, if files with the same name exist in the target directory.

XML Converters tab

Edit online

The XML Converters tab allows you to specify a path and file names for the new XML converters and the new converter driver.

This tab contains the following fields:

  • In the Select targets for the XML conversion programs group:
    Note: Generate to: Is only applicable to single service Enterprise Service Tools projects.
    Generate to:
    Same project

    Select this when the file container is on the local system (default).

    Remote location

    Select this when the file container is on a remote system. For additional information, see Generation of Enterprise Service Tools artifacts to remote systems.

    Converter file container:
    Type or select the path of a folder in which you want the wizard to create the converter files.
    Converter driver file name:
    Type the name of the file that you want to contain the new converter driver. (The converter driver is the procedure that calls the request converter and the response converter.)
    To suppress the generation of this file:
    1. Clear the checkbox Generate all to driver, if it is set.
    2. Clear the checkbox at the far left of the input field.
    Request Converter file name:
    Type the name of the file that you want to contain the new request converter. (The request converter is the procedure that maps the request XML schema definition to a high-level-language data structure.)
    To suppress the generation of this file:
    1. Clear the checkbox Generate all to driver, if it is set.
    2. Clear the checkbox at the far left of the input field.
    Response Converter file name:
    Type the name of the file that you want to contain the new response converter. (The response converter is the procedure that maps a high-level-language data structure to the response XML schema definition.)
    To suppress the generation of this file:
    1. Clear the checkbox Generate all to driver, if it is set.
    2. Clear the checkbox at the far left of the input field.
    Generate all to driver
    Select this checkbox to if you want the converter driver, the request converter, and the response converter to be contained in one file.
    Important: Prior to the availability of the "Generate Conversion Code" enhancement, where combined converters can be generated from two mapping files, it was necessary to manually combine two separate sets of converter programs for Web services having both request and response messages.
    Overwrite files without warning
    This checkbox indicates that the wizard overwrites without warning, if files with the same name exist in the target directory.

Service Properties tab

Edit online

The DFHWS2LS Service Properties tab sets properties for the Web Services for CICS® application.

On the Service Properties tab, specify the following options:
Local URI:
Type the relative URI that a client will use to access the Web service.
WSDL service:
If the WSDL file that you selected when you started the Enterprise Service Tools Wizard Launchpad is based on the WSDL 2.0 specification, then this list displays all the services that are supported by the binding that you selected in the Binding element list.
Select the service that you want the new Web service implementation to offer.
Binding element:
Select the binding in the Web service description that you want to be used to generate the language structure and Web service binding file.
Available operations:
This list displays all the available operations in the service that you selected in the WSDL service list.
Select the checkbox beside each operation that you want requesters to be able to request.
Use Select All or Deselect All to select or deselect all the available operations in the list.
Click Change WSBind Preferences at the bottom of the page to modify the Web Services Assistant (WSBind) preferences (see Setting preferences for the CICS Web Services Assistant (WSBind)).

Properties tab

Edit online

The Properties tab allows you to specify a path and file names for the new generation properties files.

This tab is present if you started the Enterprise Service Tools Wizard Launchpad from a type of project other than a single-service project, and if you selected the checkbox Save generation properties on the launchpad (see Using the Wizard Launchpad).

This tab contains the following fields:

  • In the group Select targets for the generation properties files:

    Properties file container:
    Type or select the path of a folder in which you want the wizard to create the generation properties files.
    Container.xml
    Type the name that you want to use for the Container.xml file.
    PlatformProperties.xml
    Type the name that you want to use for the PlatformProperties.xml file.
    ServiceSpecification.xml
    Type the name that you want to use for the ServiceSpecification.xml file.
