Scope

The Software AG IDL Extractor for webMethods Integration Server is a wizard that reads a package from the Integration Server and generates a Software AG IDL file from all the existing services and nodes. Each service results in a program in the IDL file. All parameters of the services are mapped to an IDL alphanumeric data type, available as variable (AV) or fixed (An) length.

With the Integration Server Wrapper you can generate a server of type "RPC Listener" or "Reliable RPC Listener". See Using the Integration Server Wrapper.

• RPC Listener
