Java Subcollaboration question (eGate 4.5.3)

[caltman]

In looking at the documentation in the pdf, I have not been able to determine whether or not using a subcollaboration causes the data passed in (using the setInstanceMap() method) is parsed when .invoke for the subcollab is called. In 4.1.2 it is possible to actually remove the ($event-parse) call if you end up using the same data that was is in the main collab, but I'm not sure how any of that would works in 4.5.3.

Thanks for any assistance.

Do following steps in main-collaboration to call sub-collaboration
1- Create a global variable of type JsubCollabMapInfo to keep track of mapping info of sub-collaboration
JSubCollabMapInfo subCollabMapInfo;
2- Within the executeBusinessRules() method, create a boolean variable that checks sub-collaboration Rule’s success
boolean subCollabSuccess;
3- Add a rule to create mapping info for sub-collaboration and assign it to the variable subCollabMapInfo
subCollabMapInfo = this.jCollabController.createSubCollabMapInfo("crOR_StarPC_ADT_to_QS",this)
where:
crOR_StarPC_AST_to_QS is a sub-collaboration
4- Set sub-collaboration's inbound event type instance
subCollabMapInfo.setInstanceMap("etOR_StarPC_ADT_in",subCollabMapInfo.getParentReferenceETD
("etOR_StarPC_ADT_in&quot,getetOR_StarPC_ADT_PID_PV1_in().rawInput(),null)
where:
etOR_StarPC_ADT_in is an inbound instance name of sub-collaboration
getetOR_StarPC_ADT_PID_PV1_in() returns reference of main-collaboration's inbound instance
5- Set sub-collaboration's outbound event type instance
subCollabMapInfo.setInstanceMap("etOR_StarPC_QS_ADT_out",subCollabMapInfo.getParentReferenceETD("etOR_StarPC_QS_ADT_out&quot,null,null)
where:
etOR_StarPC_QS_ADT_out is an outbound instance name of sub-collaboration
6- Invoke the sub-collaboration rule and assign a value to the subCollabSuccess
subCollabSuccess = this.jCollabController.invoke(subCollabMapInfo);
7- Copy data returned by sub-collaboration rule to GenericOutEvent
getetGeneric_out().setPayload(STCTypeConverter.toString(subCollabMapInfo.getOutputData("etOR_StarPC_QS_ADT_out&quot))

hope this will help you...
