Overview

A preparser is designed to convert incoming messages into processable documents. The preparsed document then passes through the standard transformation services to reach the designated processing service. An example of a preparser is a class that accepts an EDI-formatted document and converts it to XML for further processing. For more information on the methodology used in writing preparsers, see the iWay Service Manager Programmer's Guide.

Each preparser uses a class file that must be located in a directory which is in the Java classpath. iWay Service Manager includes preparsers that have been preconfigured.
