Hi

Mapping Objects: Message Mapping,Interface Mapping,Imported Archive

Message Mapping : Transformation from one msg structure to another and here the transformation rules are defined by the mapping program.

Interface Mapping : When different interafaces are used in an Integration Scenario, we need to transform the structures of these interfaces.

Imported Archive : For importing externally defined programs in the Integration Repository like java mappings or xslt stylesheets.

Thanks

Hi

Regarding Interface Objects

Interface Objects include Data Types, Message types, message Interface

Data Types : Most basic entity to define the structure of XML elements

Message Type : Describes what the actual payload of the message interface looks like.

Message Interface : Highest level representation of XML metadata.It defines the mode (Async or Sync) and direction (Inbound or Outbound ).

Hi,

Interface Objects:

Interface Objects are the low level building blocks of interfaces.

The creation and relationship between these building blocks defines the various message structures and the message interfaces they are associated to.

Mapping Objects:

Mapping Objects are only required if the message structures for an outbound / inbound pairing are not identical and are built on top of the Interface Objects created / imported.
