Creating new JCAPS eWays (like HL7, JMS, …)

Question

I'm wondering how, in JCAPS 6, we can create new eWays. By eWay, I mean the components like the existing HL7, JMS, File, eMails (ie, external applications) ... I am not sure about the exact name of these entites, "API oriented OTD", JBI, JCA.

Basically, I would like to create an object that: - is part of the Connectivity Map - has properties (which can be overwritten in Glassfish) - can cooperate dynamically with my Collaborations (JCDs)

Does anyone know how to create such objects?

Thanks, Kevin

the solution is the eWay Developement Kit (eDK). You can find the documentation here; and you should be able to find a file named "eWayDevelopmentKit.sar" in your adapters_ml\adapters JCAPS folder. Then unzip edk.zip, start runEDK.bat (adjust env.bat if necessary), and that's it !
