Hi ALL,
I am Implementing User defined HttpInput Node in IIB. We are fine with User defined node working but the node should work as HttpInputnode. Can any one Suggest me to implement the feature for HttpInput User defined node.
thanks |

a) Why not use the supplied HTTPInput node? Why create your own?
b) As far as I know (and I've not needed to use anything other than an IBM supplied input node in my entire career), a user defined input node needs to handle all of the capabilities within the user code; it's intended (from a design perspective) to allow the use of protocols the standard input nodes don't support. So to create your own http input node you need to code up an http listener with all the baggage to support connection timeout, port conflict, SSL and so forth. I don't think (and am prepared to be corrected on this) that you can get into the IBM supplied listeners and SSL structures.

Caveat:
I know the underlying structure of nodes is changing in IIBv10 and beyond, so things may change and may already have done so.
Like I said, I've never needed a user defined input node and have had need of a user defined node half a dozen times in the last 14 years. Much better to use the supplied IBM functionality.
If you absolutely, positively must use a user defined node then I'd be inclined to use a n HTTPInput node and have the user defined node as the second node in the flow to it's right.

You can create a user defined node that is implemented as a subflow, and add an HTTPInput node to that subflow (along with any other nodes you want).
You can also just put an input node in any subflow and it will "act" like a user defined node, except you're dragging a subflow from the navigator rather than a node from the palette.
You cannot just "extend" the HTTPInput node functionality by subclassing it. |

I took "user defined node' to mean "node containing C user code" not "packaged subflow".
Using the second definition I accept your solution, which ties back to my "why not use the IBM HTTPInput node" comment.
