This guide is intended for resource adaptor developers or application developers who want to use resource adaptors to connect to an Enterprise Information System (EIS) with JEUS®(hereafter JEUS). The guide describes the features of J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) and steps for packaging a resource adapter for deployment on JEUS.
To fully understand this guide, users need to have:
Understanding of connector architecture and resource adaptor
Understanding of Java (J2EE Connector Architecture Specification - version 1.7)
To understand the basic concepts and applications of JEUS, it is recommended that users refer to the following:
This guide includes examples and environment settings in UNIX. To use them in other environments such as Microsoft Windows™ (hereafter Windows), users need to consider several conditions.
For example, the Unix delimiter "/" should be replaced with the Windows delimiter "\". The environment variables also need to be specified using (%%). Note that JEUS_HOME referred to in this guide is the home directory of JEUS.
This guide contains materials regarding Java SE, but it does not provide details about the Java EE specifications. For such details, see Java documentation. This guide also does not contain descriptions of JCA standards. Refer to related documents for more information about how to use and manage JCA.
Brief information about the JCA standards is introduced here, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html. For the details, refer to JCA 1.7 standards or related documents.
This guide consists of four chapters and one appendix.
Describes the JCA standards and resource adaptors.
"Chapter 2. Outbound Management"
Describes roles and functions of JEUS in an outbound communication from an application to EIS, based on interoperation with a connection pool and transaction.
"Chapter 3. Inbound Management"
Describes the roles and functions of JEUS in an inbound communication from an EIS to an application.
Describes JEUS's security management function, and explains how to add the jeus-connector-dd.xml file to a resource adapter, and what you need to know for deployment.
"Appendix A. Notes for jeus-connector-dd.xml Configuration"
Describes the precautions for configuring the jeus-connector-dd.xml file.
