Create and use TIBCO schemas
Overview
Microsoft BizTalk Adapter for TIBCO Enterprise Message Service (EMS) uses schemas that you create using an XML editor or the BizTalk Server Editor in Visual Studio (only when you use the adapter in an orchestration). The schema describes the type of information that you expect. This topic contains information for both a send and a receive handler.
The schemas you create for use with BizTalk Adapter for TIBCO Enterprise Message Service must have a target namespace. BizTalk Server requires the target namespace because it is the key that associates a given message instance with a given orchestration. In other words, an orchestration subscribes to any message that has a specific target namespace, and an incoming XML message that has that target namespace is given to every orchestration that subscribed to the message. If an XML document schema does not have a target namespace, BizTalk Server uses the name of the root element as a key.
The following steps show how to generate a schema, and how to set the target namespace.
Generate a Schema
In the BizTalk Editor, open your project.
Under Solution Explorer in the upper-right, select Add, and then select Add Generated Items.
In the Templates pane, select Generate Schemas, and then click Add.
In the Generate Schemas dialog box, in the Document type list, select Well-Formed XML.
Click Browse to locate the input file for which you want to generate a schema, and then click OK.
Next, set the target namespace.
Set the target namespace
In BizTalk Editor, open your schema file, right-click <schema>, and then select Properties.
In the Properties pane, locate the Namespace field and type a name, for example,
testNameSpace.You can then continue with your orchestration using messages. When a message is picked up, BizTalk Server finds an orchestration that uses a schema with a set target namespace, and the orchestration process is followed.
