Drag & Drop 

Use

You can use Drag & Drop to move objects between the navigation area and the object editor.

Features

You can use Drag & Drop to do the following:

·        Open object editors

You can call up the object editor Display <Object> for an object by dragging the object from the navigation area to the work area. To do so, drag the object to the edge of the work area. When this edge is selected and turns black, drop the object.

This is supported within the Integration Repository or the Integration Directory.

Create object references within object editors

The object editors of some object types contain Drag & Drop targets.  These drop targets are indicated by the hand icon (). If object O1 is opened in change mode and object O2 is dragged from the navigation area using Drag & Drop to the hand icon (), then object O2 is entered in this location in the object editor of object O1. An object reference from object O1 to object O2 is then created.

If you have opened a message interface in change mode, then you can drag a message type from the navigation area using Drag & Drop to the Output Message Type line of the message interface.To do so, drag the message type across to the hand icon in the object editor of the message interface. The message type is entered in the Output Message Type line and an object reference is created to the message type.

Drag & Drop is also supported between the Integration Repository and the Integration Directory.

You can drag an interface object from the navigation area of the Integration Repository to the “Hand” icon in the Inbound Interface column in the Change Interface Determination editor in the Integration Directory, by using Drag & Drop. This creates an object reference from a configuration object (interface determination) in the Integration Directory to a design object (message interface) in the Integration Repository.
