All,
I am not sure if this question has been asked before. I did a bit of searching around but could not find any. So here goes the question.
WMB - V5 CSD 9.
OS - Unix.
Question : Can we reverse engineer the BAR file to get the message flow/ message sets in that BAR file ? The source files have not been added to the BAR file while creation.
reason : We are facing a versioning issue for some interfaces. We are not really sure which version in cleacase is the one that is actually deployed to the production box.
any thoughts on this would be very helpful.
regards,
Anoop |

You can't really decompile flows from the bar... You can't really decompile flows from the deployed broker.
Your best bet is to mark everything in clearcase very clearly, and mark the code with version properties (on the node properties and bar file properties) and then redeploy to a known version.

thanks for the reply Jeff.
In your opinion would there be any chance that IBM could provide some utility for this job if a PMR is raised on the issue ? My guess would be 'No' but just wanted your and others thoughts on the same. |

I don't really have an opinion on this matter.

Anoop - your solution is in v6.0 or v6.1. These versions allow you to embed version information inside your deployed artefacts.
Additionally, V6.1 allows you to deploy .xsdzip files (zip files containing xsds) instead of .dictionaries for certain messages; These are a lot easier to manage as they are not "compiled" like dictionaries are. |
