About This Document

ƒSupport for Runtime LDAP Configuration: eWay configuration properties now support LDAP key values.

ƒConnection Retry Support: Allows you to specify the number of attempts to reconnect, and the interval between retry attempts, in the event of a connection failure.

ƒRelaunchable OTD Support: An OTD can be rebuilt and saved (under the same name) then relaunched back to the same Java Collaboration or BPEL. This allows you to change the metadata in an OTD without having to completely recreate the business logic from scratch.

ƒEditable OTD Support: An existing OTD can be edited and saved using the OTD Wizard. This allows you to make minor changes to an OTD without having to completely recreate the OTD from scratch. The OTD is then rebuilt, saved, and then relaunched back to the same Java Collaboration or BPEL.

ƒConnectivity Map Generator: Generates and links your Project’s Connectivity Map components using a Collaboration or Business Process.

Many of these features are documented further in the Sun SeeBeyond eGate™ Integrator User’s Guide or the Sun SeeBeyond eGate™ Integrator System Administration Guide.
