Mr.Ratan
Are these collaboration and map API's present in the repository. I could find the "ProcessTemplateCreatAndStartInstance" Java code.
Is that what you meant, or something else. If something different are there any links available.
Thanks,
urs |

let me ask a simple question
can any BO be manipulated in Collab? or only those which are mentioned in port and triggering
these are available as From/out/to/In whatever name we give in the port and triggering event rwo Am I right?
can a map be called from collab and can that be programmed graphically?
Please reply with some step. that would be helpful.
thanks |

Inside the collaboration,The BO that is going to be manipulated is GBO.That is the one which you get from 'From' port.Collaboration subscribes to this TLO(Toplevel BusinessObject) ,once it see's this TLO in the Connector Controller,it gets it manipulates on it and sends to the 'To' port on doing the service call inside the collab.
I have used 'From' and 'To' ports for your understanding.It can be anything either you wish or business wishes. |

when we add service call, and assign the property, the only variables available are frombusobj, tobusobj and triggeringbusobj. How can I make call to adapter to send an object created in collaboration?
pls ignore the case of character |

In a collaboration, you can write java code to access any element of any BO.
look at the sample codes in the help.
For Example:
String WFRequestType = triggeringBusObj.getString("Main_Order.ICSInOutStruct.RequestType");
String EIFOC = null;
String orderId = null;
if(WFRequestType != null && WFRequestType.trim().equalsIgnoreCase("R"))
{
EIFOC = "I";
orderId = GUI_RetrieveAddressBusObj.getString("Response.DetailQueryResult.Customer.Orders.Order[0].StartDateID");
}else
{
EIFOC = "D";
orderId = GUI_RetrieveAddressBusObj.getString("Response.DetailQueryResult.Customer.Orders.Order[0].EndDateID");
}
EIBusObj.setWithCreate("Request.ALIUpdateRequest.FOC", EIFOC);
EIBusObj.setWithCreate("Request.HEADER.ORD", orderId);
frombusobj, tobusobj and triggeringbusobj.
From the above code you should be able to understand that two different fields are called from two different BOs.
And I see a post from you asking how to run a Map in collab.
See the following code and understand it and put this code in the action button of the collab.
{
// run map from gbo to PROVE asbo
CxExecutionContext globalContext = new CxExecutionContext();
MapExeContext mapContext = new MapExeContext();
globalContext.setContext(CxExecutionContext.MAPCONTEXT, mapContext);
mapContext.setInitiator(MapExeContext.EVENT_DELIVERY);
BusObj[] sBO = { triggeringBusObj };
BusObj[] dBO = DtpMapService.runMap("MQWF_UpdateEICollabStructTLO_TO_E911GUI_DetailQueryTLO",
DtpMapService.CWMAPTYPE, sBO, globalContext);
GUI_RetrieveAddressBusObj = dBO[0].duplicate();
trace(5,"##### GUI_RetrieveAddressBusObj: " + GUI_RetrieveAddressBusObj.toString());
}
And you also asked about the port businessobjects. There will be lot of ports depending on the Collab and you have select the BO that the connector is expecting as input. If your connector is expecting the BO triggered, you select the triggeringBusObj.
It is better if you go through with the collabs that are already developed (if any from previous project from your client) and understand the flow.
Any question, post here too!!!  |

A triggering bo is the BO the collaboration subscribed for.

The API can be found in ICS documentation
