Chapter 7 Section 7.3
Implementing the HTTPS eWay JCD Sample Projects Building and Deploying the prjHTTPClient_JCD Sample Project
HTTPS eWay Adapter User’s Guide 99 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
The Sample_In.dtd file defines the following elements:
Method: Defines whether the file is for a GET or POST command.
URL: Defines the address of the target HTTP server.
Data: Stores the data string(s) used in the POST command. You can use a single
input string in this case.
If your input comes with a name-and-value pair (for example, user name and password
fields), you can use ‘|’ as a delimiter between pairs of data and use ‘^’ as a sub-
delimiter. For example, if the user name field is myname, and the password field is
mypass, then the data element is:
username^myuser|password^mypass
You can use any number of pairs in this case. When the HTTPS eWay sends out the
POST request, the URL becomes:
url?username=myuser&password=mypass
Where url is the URL element in the input file.
7.3.2 Creating a Project
The first step is to create a new Project in the Enterprise Designer.
1 Start the Enterprise Designer.
2 From the Project Explorer tree, right-click the Repository and select New Project. A
new Project (Project1) appears on the Project Explorer tree.
3 Right-click Project1 and select Rename form the shortcut menu. Rename the Project
(for this sample, prjHTTPClient_JCD).
7.3.3 Creating the OTD
The next step is to create a Data Type Definition (DTD) OTD as an input file for this
HTTPS sample Project.
Follow the steps outlined in “Creating the OTD” on page 61 to convert the
Sample_In.dtd file into an eGate OTD. Name the new OTD
Sample_In_with_top_website.
7.3.4 Creating the Collaboration Definition (Java)
The eGate Enterprise Designer contains a Collaboration Definition wizard (Java) that
allows you to create Java-based Collaborations. You must use the wizard to create a
Collaboration Definition before implementing the Collaboration.
The Collaboration Editor user interface allows you to create the Business Rules that
implement your business logic for a Java-based Collaboration. You can create the
desired Business Rules for your Project by dragging and dropping values from a source
