3.1Creating and Configuring a JDBC eWay
All eWays contain a unique set of default configuration parameters. After the eWays are established and a JDBC External System is created in the Project’s Environment, the eWay parameters are modified for your specific system. The JDBC eWay configuration parameters are modified from two locations:
Connectivity Map: These parameters most commonly apply to a specific component eWay, and may vary from other eWays (of the same type) in the Project.
Environment Explorer : These parameters are commonly global, applying to all eWays (of the same type) in the Project. The saved properties are shared by all eWays in the JDBC External System window.
Collaboration or Business Process: JDBC eWay properties may also be set from your Collaboration or Business Process, in which case the settings will override the corresponding properties in the eWay’s Connectivity Map configuration. Any properties that are not overridden retain their configured default settings.
3.2Configuring the eWay Connectivity Map Properties
When you connect an External Application to a Collaboration, Enterprise Designer automatically assigns the appropriate eWay to the link. Each eWay is supplied with a list of eWay connections (transaction support levels) from which to choose.
Transaction support levels provided by the JDBC eWay include:
