Configuring connection points

A client application can have multiple connections to the back-end. For example, Infor LN Business Studio requires a connection to exchange business metadata with the application server, and a connection to test business interface implementations on the server.

For each connection, you must define a Connection Point, which stores connection properties such as host name, user, password, BSE, and bshell name.

The connection points are stored in your Eclipse preferences.

To configure the connection points:

1. Start the client application for which you want to configure connection points.
2. In the Eclipse workbench, on the Windows menu, select Preferences.
3. In the left pane of the Preferences dialog, select Infor LN JCA Connectivity. The Infor LN JCA Connectivity dialog is displayed. The dialog shows the client application's connection points.
4. To configure a connection point, select the connection point and click Edit. The Configure Connection point wizard starts. Specify the properties for the connection points and close the wizard. For details, see the wizard's online Help.

Note

The number of connection points you must define, and the connection point properties, are different for each client application. For details, refer to the documentation of the involved applications.

If multiple connection points connect to the same Infor LN environment, you can share these connection points. Therefore, to improve the performance, only one bshell is used to connect to the back-end.
