SOA - Using Preferences in Oracle SOA Suite 11g

In the Oracle SOA 11g, we can add a preferences in composite.xml and use it in our BPEL process.

Where to add?

In the composite.xml, locate the component element.

  <component name="SubmitHUPOrderWireless" version="2.0">
    <implementation.bpel src="SubmitHUPOrderWireless.bpel"/>
    <property name="bpel.preference.timeout">PT240S</property>
  </component>

In the BEPL, we can use it by the follow code.

  <onAlarm>
       <for>ora:getPreference('timeout')</for>
       <assign name="AssignTimeoutFault">
             <copy bpelx:insertMissingToData="yes">
                  <from>'System Timeout'</from>
                  <to>$fault_var/Body/Exception/ExceptionType</to>
             </copy>
        </assign>
  </onAlarm>
