Configuring Business Operations

A business operation represents a method call, implemented by an EJB or Java class instance, that allows you to create customized actions. For additional information, see "Configuring Business Operations" in Configuring Workflow Resources in Using the WebLogic Integration Studio.

This section describes the tasks associated with configuring business operations, including the following topics:

- Adding a Business Operation

- Getting Business Operations

- Updating a Business Operation

- Deleting a Business Operation

- Getting EJB Descriptors

- Getting Java Class Descriptors

- Examples of Configuring Business Operations

For more information about the methods described in this section, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin and com.bea.wlpi.server.catalog.EJBCatalog Javadoc.

Adding a Business Operation

To add a business operation, use one of the following com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin methods.

Method 1

>     public java.lang.String addBusinessOperation(
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor descriptor
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

Method 2

>     public java.lang.String addBusinessOperation(
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor descriptor
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

Each method creates a business operation. The first method creates a business operation implemented by a session or entity EJB; the second, by a Java class instance that is accessible on the server.

Note: Although session EJBs can be stored in workflow variables, stateful session EJBs are not persisted as part of a workflow instance, but exist only for the life of the transaction in which they are created. For more information about the transaction model, see Understanding the BPM Transaction Model. Entity EJBs, stateless EJBs, and Java class instances, on the other hand, are persisted as part of a workflow instance.

The following table describes the addBusinessOperation() method parameter for which you must specify a value.

Table 10-1 addBusinessOperation() Method Parameter

Parameter | Description | Valid Values
--- | --- | ---
descriptor | Invocation descriptor for the business operation. The invocation descriptor consists of meta-data that describes the method invocation on the EJB or Java class instance that implements the business operation. | One of the following values: com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor when a method is being added to an EJB com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor when a method is being added to a Java class instance For information about getting the EJB or Java class invocation descriptor, see Getting EJB Descriptors or Getting Java Class Descriptors, respectively. For information about defining an EJBInvocationDescriptor or ClassInvocationDescriptor, see EJBInvocationDescriptor Object or ClassInvocationDescriptor Object, respectively.

Each method returns the ID of the new business operation.

For example, the following code adds the EJB business operation with the specified invocation descriptor, descriptor. In this example, admin represents the EJBObject reference to the Admin EJB.

>     String operationId = admin.addBusinessOperation(descriptor);

For more information about the addBusinessOperation() methods, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin Javadoc.

Getting Business Operations

To get a list of defined business operations, use the following com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin method:

>     public java.util.List getBusinessOperations(
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

This method returns a list of com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor or com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor objects, in which the currently defined business operations are identified. To access information about each object, use the EJBInvocationDescritor or ClassInvocationDescriptor object methods described in EJBInvocationDescriptor Object or ClassInvocationDescriptor Object, respectively.

For example, the following code gets the currently defined business operations. In this example, admin represents the EJBObject reference to the Admin EJB.

>     String operationsList = admin.getBusinessOperations();

For more information about the getBusinessOperations() method, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin Javadoc.

Updating a Business Operation

To update a business operation, use one of the following com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin methods.

Method 1

>     public void updateBusinessOperation(
>       java.lang.String busOpId,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor descriptor
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

Method 2

>     public void updateBusinessOperation(
>       java.lang.String busOpId,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor descriptor
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

Each method updates a business operation. The first method updates a business operation implemented by a session or entity EJB; the second, by a Java class instance that is accessible on the server.

The following table describes the parameters for which you must specify a value for the updateBusinessOperation() methods.

Table 10-2 updateBusinessOperation() Method Parameters

Parameter | Description | Valid Values
--- | --- | ---
busOpId | ID of the business operation to be updated. | String specifying a valid business operation ID. To get the business operation ID, use the following com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor or com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor method: public java.lang.String getId() For information about getting the EJB or Java class invocation descriptor, see Getting EJB Descriptors or Getting Java Class Descriptors, respectively. For information about defining an EJBInvocationDescriptor or ClassInvocationDescriptor, see EJBInvocationDescriptor Object or ClassInvocationDescriptor Object, respectively.
descriptor | Invocation descriptor for the business operation. The invocation descriptor consists of meta-data that describes the method invocation on the EJB or Java class instance that implements the business operation. | One of the following values: com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor when a method on an EJB is being updated com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor when a method on a Java class instance is being updated For information about getting the EJB or Java class descriptor, see Getting EJB Descriptors or Getting Java Class Descriptors, respectively.

For example, the following code updates the EJB business operation with the specified ID and invocation descriptor, descriptor. In this example, admin represents the EJBObject reference to the Admin EJB.

>     admin.updateBusinessOperation("12345", descriptor);

For more information about the updateBusinessOperation() methods, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin Javadoc.

Deleting a Business Operation

To delete a business operation, use the following com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin method:

>     public void deleteBusinessOperation(
>       java.lang.String busOpId
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

The following table describes the deleteBusinessOperation() method parameter for which you must specify a value.

Table 10-3 deleteBusinessOperation() Method Parameter

Parameter | Description | Valid Values
--- | --- | ---
busOpId | ID of the business operation to delete. | String specifying a valid business operation ID. To get the business operation ID, use the following com.bea.wlpi.common.EJBInvocationDescriptor or com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassInvocationDescriptor method: public java.lang.String getId() For information about getting the EJB or Java class invocation descriptor, see Getting EJB Descriptors or Getting Java Class Descriptors, respectively. For information about defining an EJBInvocationDescriptor or ClassInvocationDescriptor, see EJBInvocationDescriptor Object or ClassInvocationDescriptor Object, respectively.

For example, the following code deletes the specified business operation. In this example, admin represents the EJBObject reference to the Admin EJB.

>     admin.deleteBusinessOperation("124345");

For more information about the deleteBusinessOperation() method, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin Javadoc.

Getting EJB Descriptors

To add, update, or delete business operations that are implemented by an EJB, you need to get the EJB descriptor. To get an EJB descriptor, use the methods available via the com.bea.wlpi.server.catalog.EJBCatalog EJB.

Note: The EJBInvocationDescriptor class also provides methods for getting, setting, and invoking EJB descriptors. For more information, see EJBInvocationDescriptor Object.

The following table lists the com.bea.wlpi.server.catalog.EJBCatalog methods that can be used to set preferences for getting EJB descriptors.

Table 10-4 EJBCatalog EJB Methods for Setting Preferences for Getting an EJB Descriptor

Method | Description
--- | ---
public void setCatalogRoot( java.lang.String root ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException | Set the JNDI context to use when looking up installed EJBs. root specifies a valid JNDI name of context containing EJB bindings.
public void setInspectAlways( boolean inspectAlways ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException | Specify whether the process engine regenerates the JNDI names and EJBMetaData when getting an EJB descriptor or name. inspectAlways specifies a Boolean argument to enable (true) or disable (false) automatic regeneration.
public boolean inspectAlways( ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException | Determine whether automatic regeneration is enabled or disabled. Returns a Boolean argument specifying whether or not the JNDI names and EJBMetaData are regenerated when the process engine is getting an EJB descriptor or name.

The following table lists the com.bea.wlpi.server.catalog.EJBCatalog methods that can be used to get an EJB descriptor.

Table 10-5 EJBCatalog EJB Methods for Getting an EJB Descriptor

Method | Description
--- | ---
public java.util.List getEJBDescriptors( ) throws com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException, java.rmi.RemoteException | Get the EJBs installed in the previously specified JNDI context. The default implementation recursively iterates through all JNDI bindings within this context and builds a list containing an EJBMetaData object for each EJBHome object encountered. This method returns a list of javax.ejb.EJBMetaData objects.
public java.util.List getEJBNames( ) throws com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException, java.rmi.RemoteException | Get the JNDI names of the EJBs installed in the previously specified JNDI context. The default implementation recursively iterates through all JNDI bindings within this context and builds a list containing the JNDI names of all EJBHome objects encountered. This method returns a list of JNDI names.

For example, the following code enables hot deployment of EJBs and gets the JNDI names of all EJBHome objects. In this example, catalog represents the EJBObject reference to the EJBCatalog EJB.

>     catalog.setInspectAlways(true);
>     List ejbList = catalog.getEJBNames();

For more information about the EJBCatalog methods, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.catalog.EJBCatalog Javadoc.

Getting Java Class Descriptors

To add, update, or delete business operations that are implemented by a Java class, you need to get the class descriptor. To get a class descriptor, use the methods available via the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin EJB.

Note: The ClassInvocationDescriptor class also provides methods for getting, setting, and invoking class descriptors. For more information, see ClassInvocationDescriptor Object.

To get a Java class descriptor, use the following com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin method:

>     public com.bea.wlpi.common.ClassDescriptor getClassDescriptor(
>       java.lang.String className
>     ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException,
>       com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException

The following table describes the getClassDescriptor() method parameter for which you must specify a value.

Table 10-6 getClassDescriptor() Method Parameter

Parameter | Description | Valid Values
--- | --- | ---
className | Fully-qualified Java class name for which you want a descriptor returned. | String specifying a valid, fully qualified Java class name.

This method returns a ClassDescriptor, consisting of meta-data for the specified Java class.

For example, the following code gets the class descriptor for the specified Java class, com.somedomain.someproduct.CreateWidget. In this example, admin represents the EJBObject reference to the Admin EJB.

>     ClassDescriptor descriptor = admin.getClassDescriptor
>       ("com.somedomain.someproduct.CreateWidget");

For more information about the getClassDescriptor() method, see the com.bea.wlpi.server.admin.Admin Javadoc.

Example of Getting an EJB Descriptor

This section provides excerpts from the command-line administration example showing how to get EJB descriptors and set related preferences.

Note: For more information about the command-line administration example, see Command-Line Administration Example.

In this example, an input stream is defined to communicate with the user, and the user is prompted to specify one of the following actions to be performed:

- Querying the Inspect Always Flag

- Setting the Inspect Always Flag

- Getting Deployed EJB Names

- Getting EJB Deployment Descriptors

Important lines of code are highlighted in bold. In this example, catalog represents the EJBObject reference to the EJBCatalog EJB.

>     /* Create an input stream to communicate with the user */
>     stdIn = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( System.in ) )

>     /* Display Tool Title */
>        System.out.print( "\n---  Command Line Administration v1.1  ---" );

>     /* Display the main menu and interact with user */
>     while( true ) {
>     /* Display the menu */
>        System.out.println( "\n---             Main Menu            ---" );
>        System.out.println( "\nEnter choice:" );
>        System.out.println( "1) Organizations" );
>        System.out.println( "2) Roles" );
>        System.out.println( "3) Users" );
