Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707702

Abstract:

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for generating from application modifications commands to modify the objects in a repository. An input object including an update to at least one of a plurality of objects in a repository object is received. At least one maintain property associated with at least one of the objects is received. The at least one maintain property indicates whether to maintain the at least one object associated with the maintain property in the repository object that is not indicated in the input object. A determination is made of an object in the repository object that are not indicated in the input object. For the determined object, the maintain property associated with the determined object is used to determine whether to maintain the determined object in the repository object.

International Classification:

G06F 9/44

US Classification:

719331, 719332

Abstract:

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer-usable program product for exchanging data using data transformation are provided. A first data binding component receives data from a function selector. A set of data bindings capable of invocation by the first data binding component is available. The function selector determines a content type associated with the data. The first data binding component receives the data and the content type from the function selector. The first data binding component invokes a data binding corresponding to the content type from the set of data bindings to transform the data into a data object. The data object has an object name. A target application is determined based on the object name, and the data object is then routed to a target application.

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

719328

Abstract:

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for providing seamless multiple format metadata abstraction. A metadata application programming interface (API) is provided to abstract metadata from an incoming business object and provide it to an adapter for processing. The metadata API is configured to operate on multiple metadata formats such as SDO and JavaBean such that the adapter receives the metadata from the metadata API in a common format that is compatible with the adapter. In this manner, the multiple metadata formats may be plugably used with the adapter.

International Classification:

G06F 15/173
G06F 11/00

US Classification:

709224, 709223, 714 16

Abstract:

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for assuring delivery of an Enterprise Information System (EIS) event to a client. An adapter apparatus polls at least one EIS for an event. The event is staged to a staging table, consisting of an XA-compliant database, in preparation for delivery to the client. The status of the event is marked and the event is delivered to the client. Events delivered to clients that are unresponsive or otherwise unavailable are held until the clients become responsive and then the events are delivered. Delivery of events is confirmed using a transaction service.

International Classification:

G06F 7/00
G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707758, 707759, 707760

Abstract:

A computer program product comprises a computer useable medium. The computer useable medium has a computer readable program such that when the computer readable medium is executed on a computer, the computer is caused to receive a request from a database driver that is compatible with a software application. The request is in a database language format. Further, the computer is caused to parse the request. In addition, the computer is caused to convert the request into an intermediary data format. The computer is also caused to provide the request in the intermediary data format to a common client interface builder that reformats the request into a format that is compatible with a system resource adapter and invokes the system resource adapter with the reformatted request.

Inventors:

Madhavi Katari - Sunnyvale CA, US
Travis E. Nelson - San Jose CA, US
Suraksha Vidyarthi - Fremont CA, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

719328

Abstract:

For seamlessly abstracting metadata in multiple formats, an abstraction module converts first metadata of an incoming object and additional metadata for the incoming object from an annotation map contained by the first metadata into a common format useable. The additional metadata is not part of an original format of the first metadata. A communication module communicates the converted metadata to an adapter in the common format, the adapter processing the first metadata and the additional metadata independent of the original format of the first metadata.
