Hi,

personally, I used ONE namespace to defined ONE interface. With this tips, I can easylly transport (DEV -> QUA) my whole interface just by choosen the Namespace and not all objects: data type, message type, message mapping, etc...

For me, a namespace is like a "Package" (development class) of SAP R/3 terminology.

I hope this help you.

Hi,

Adding to what has been nemtioned, Namespace in your SWCV is a means to segrgate your objects and interfaces making ease of use and a modular strucutre to your interfaces.

Hi Satish,

There are two kinds of namespaces that are used in XI. One is the namespace that is created inside the sofware component (Repository namespaces)and the other is the XML namespace for the data objects.

Here is the documenation about both in detail:-

Hi ,

Namespace is used to identify your objects in the XML message uniquely. If you see Software Component Version is a Main folder(Directory Structure) then namespace is a subfolder inside the SWCV. Each SWCV can have multiple Namespaces. Each namespace represents your logical representation of your integration scenario
