Integrating OracleAS Adapter for IMS/TM

with OC4J

To deploy and integrate OracleAS Adapter for IMS/TM with Oracle Application
Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J), you need to configure the J2CA 1.5 IMS/TM
adapter.

This section includes the following topics:

Integrating OracleAS Adapter for IMS/TM with OC4J

Oracle Application Server provides a complete Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE)
environment that executes on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) of the standard Java
Development Kit (JDK). OC4J is J2EE certified and provides all the J2EE specific
containers, APIs, and services. OC4J supports the J2CA 1.5 standard.

J2CA defines standard Java interfaces for simplifying the integration of applications
with the EIS. OracleAS adapters are deployed as a Resource Adapter (RA) within the
OC4J container.

The contract between the OC4J client application and the resource adapter is defined
by the common client interface (CCI). The contract between the OC4J container and
the resource adapter is defined by the service provider interface (SPI). The SPI API
addresses the connection management, transaction management and the security
management.

Connection management enables application components to connect to an EIS and
leverage any connection pooling provided by the application server.

Transaction management enables an application server to use a transaction manager to
manage transactions across multiple resource managers. Security management
provides authentication, authorization, and secure communication between the J2EE
server and the EIS.

Lifecycle management contracts enable an application server to initialize a resource
adapter instance during the deployment of the adapter or application server startup.
In addition, it enables the application server to notify the resource adapter instance
during server shutdown or undeployment of the adapter.
