Spawn new message from adapter module

[Former Member]

I am looking for some code to spawn a new message from within an adapter module. Basically I my module does a EDI conversion to XML, and at the same time generates a FA. I want to create a new message for the FA (to then be processed).

I can create a message object OK, but am having trouble finding any documentation on how to send it. I suspect that I need to instantiate a "Connection" object, then call the send method. However the createConnection method requires a string parameter and I do not know what this should be.

My code sample if below.

Anyone got any thoughts?

Regards,

Jason

Context ctx = new InitialContext();

ConnectionFactory cf = (ConnectionFactory) ctx.lookup(

com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.ConnectionFactory.JNDI_NAME);

MessageFactory factory = cf.createMessageFactory("XI");

Message msgnew = factory.createMessage(

msg.getFromParty(),msg.getToParty(),

msg.getFromService(),msg.getToService(), msg.getAction());

msgnew.setConversationId(msg.getConversationId());

msgnew.setDocument(msg.getDocument());

msgnew.setDeliverySemantics(DeliverySemantics.ExactlyOnceInOrder);

• Connection con = cf.createConnection(""); **

con.send(msgnew);

Hi Jason,

this sounds exciting - but why exactly do you need to spawn the message in the Module. Wouldn't it much easier to use the standard XI mechanisms (Routing, Message Split, etc.) to create a new message with all the advantages (will show up in monitoring, easy to maintain, etc.) instead of playing with the fire of undocumented features...

Peter,

Thank you for your response. I have redesigned my solution, and now use a message split in the receiver determination to achieve what I needed to do.

At the same time this allowed me to move some code from an Adapter module, into a Java mapping - making it a lot easier to debug.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Jason
