In this step, you use WebLogic Workshop to create the application, in which you build the tutorial business process (RequestQuote.jpd). The tasks in this step include:
To Create a Business Process Tutorial Application
BEA_HOME\weblogic81\samples\domains\integration
where BEA_HOME is the directory in which you installed WebLogic Platform.
The Application pane displays a hierarchical representation of the files and resources available in your application. It includes the following components:
Tutorial_Process_Application—The application folder.
Schemas—A Schemas project that contains the XML Schemas and the Message Broker channel file used in the application.
Tutorial_Process_ApplicationWeb—A Web application project folder. Every application contains one or more projects. Projects represent WebLogic Server Web applications. In other words, when you create a project, you are creating a Web application. (The name of your project is included in the URL that clients use to access your application.)
Web Applications are J2EE deployment units that define a collection of Web resources such as business processes, Web services, JSPs, servlets, HTML pages, and can define references to external resources such as EJBs.
Note: The Web application project folder is named by appending Web to the name you gave your application.
requestquote—Contains your project files and folders:
Note: If you want to run and test the RequestQuote.jpd provided for you in the application folder, complete the steps in Step 12: Run the Request Quote Business Process.
RequestQuoteavailProcessor_avail.xq
RequestQuoteavailProcessorGetAvail.xq
RequestQuotepriceProcessor_returnPrice.xq
RequestQuotepriceProcessorGetPrice.xq
RequestQuotetaxCalculationRequestTaxRate.xq
Note: To delete these files, put your mouse pointer in the Application tab, then press Shift and select the files you want to delete. Right-click and select Delete 7 files. Delete only the files listed in this step. You need all other files as you build the business process. Files are deleted from the Application pane (and from your application folder in the file system).
To Begin the Design of Your Request for Quote Business Process
In this step you start the process of recreating the RequestQuote.jpd business process in the requestquote folder.
Note: As indicated by the file extension in the New File dialog box, you create a new JPD (Process Definition for Java) file when you create a process file. A JPD file is a JAVA file; it contains code for a Java class. Specifically, it contains the implementation code for a business process class.
The new RequestQuote.jpd file is created and displayed in the Design View (which for the moment consists only of a Start and a Finish node).
