Support for Runtime LDAP Configuration: eWay configuration properties now
support LDAP key values.
Connection 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.
Relaunchable 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.
Editable 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.
Connectivity 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.
