Creating CloudStreams Provider Projects
To create a CloudStreams Provider project
1. In Software AG Designer, open the CloudStreams Development perspective by clicking Window > Open Perspective > Other > CloudStreams Development.
2. Click the “CloudStreams Connectors” view on the left side of the page.
3. Click File > New > CloudStreams Provider Project from the menu.
4. In the “New CloudStreams Provider Project” wizard, assign a name to the new project using any combination of letters, numbers, and the underscore character. The project name must be a valid resource name on your operating system, must not be null, and cannot be an empty string.
Field
Description
Project Name
CloudStreams Provider project names are validated according to the same rules that apply to Integration Server package names. Keep the following guidelines in mind when naming new packages:
*Start all package names with an uppercase letter and capitalize the first letter of subsequent words (for example, PurchaseOrder).
*Keep package names short. Use abbreviations instead of full names. For example, instead of ProcessPurchaseOrder, use ProcessPO.
*Ensure that the package name describes the functionality and purpose of the services it contains.
*Control characters and special characters like periods (.), including:
*Avoid creating package names with random capitalization (for example, cOOLPkgTest).
*Avoid using articles (for example, “a,” “an,” and “the”) in the package name. For example, instead of TestTheService, use TestService.
*Avoid using the prefix “Wm”. Integration Server and Designer use the “Wm” prefix for predefined packages that contain services, IS document types, and other files.
*Avoid using control characters and special characters like periods (.) in a package name. The watt.server.illegalNSChars setting in the server.cnf file (which is located in the IntegrationServer_directory\instances\instance_name\config directory) defines all the characters that you cannot use when naming packages. Additionally, the operating system on which you run the Integration Server might have specific requirements that limit package names.
Use default location
The “Use default location” option is selected by default. The default location is the Workspace root. For example, if you are using C:\Workspaces\My_Workspace.. the default location would be C:\Workspaces\runtime-Eclipse Application, which is the Workspace root.
Location
Select a location in your local file system to store the new project.
Choose file system
Choose a file system, either “default” or “RSE”.
Publisher
Optional. Enter the name of the publisher of the Package/Provider.
Description
Optional. Provide a description of the project.
5. Click Finish.
