Using iWay Explorer With the iWay Application Adapter for Siebel

In this section:

iWay Explorer uses an explorer metaphor for browsing the Siebel system for Business Services, Business Objects, Business Components, and Integration Objects. The explorer enables you to create XML schemas and Web services for the associated object. External applications that access Siebel through the iWay Application Adapter for Siebel use either XML schemas or Web services to pass data between the external application and the adapter.

The adapter works with all implementations of iWay Explorer. This documentation illustrates the explorer using Servlet iWay Explorer, a Java Web application running within a servlet container that is accessible through a Web browser.

iWay Explorer uses interfaces provided by Siebel and in-depth knowledge of the Siebel application systems to access and browse business object metadata. After an object is selected, iWay Explorer can generate an XML schema or Web service to define the object for use in conjunction with the iWay Application Adapter for Siebel.

External applications accessing Siebel via the iWay Application Adapter for Siebel use either the XML document or Web service to pass data between the external application and the adapter.

The steps required to create XML schemas for Web services are illustrated in Creating XML Schemas and iWay Business Services. For more information on using iWay Explorer, see the iWay Explorer User's Guide.
