Browsing for Files in the SOA Design-Time MDS Repository

You can browse for and select files in the SOA Design-Time MDS Repository. For example, the WSDL Chooser dialog that you access from the Create Web Service dialog includes a selection for the SOA Design-Time MDS Repository, as shown in Figure 3-18.

The Type Chooser dialog includes a Recent Files folder in which information is kept for the duration of the Oracle JDeveloper session. For example, if you create a new BPEL process and want to define the input variable from a schema in the SOA Design-Time MDS Repository, you go there once. When you want to define the output variable from the same schema, the schema remains visible in the Recent Files folder. Figure 3-19 shows the Recent Files folder.
