Create/add Custom Xpath to OSB/osb eclipse

1.       Create java project with point 2 and 3 (it should have .properties and xml file).

2.       Create your java class and method to perform your operation.

3.       Add properties and xml

Create common-functions.Properties file with below two lines.

%OSB_FUNCTIONS%=Service Bus Functions

%FUNC_COMMON_COMMENT%=Utility function methods

Create common-functions.xml as,

xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xpf:xpathFunctions xmlns:xpf="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/xpath/config">

    <xpf:category id="%OSB_FUNCTIONS%">     

        

         <xpf:function>

                <xpf:name>retrunStrxpf:name>

                <xpf:comment>%FUNC_COMMON_COMMENT%xpf:comment>

                <xpf:namespaceURI>http://www.test.com/xquery/Common-functions/testxpathxpf:namespaceURI>

                <xpf:className>com.service.util.TestCustomXpathxpf:className>

                <xpf:method>java.lang.String retrunStr(java.lang.String)xpf:method>

                <xpf:isDeterministic>falsexpf:isDeterministic>

                <xpf:scope>Pipelinexpf:scope>

                <xpf:scope>SplitJoinxpf:scope>

         xpf:function>

        

    xpf:category>

xpf:xpathFunctions>

4.       Export the above java project as jar file.

5.       Copy the jar, common-functions.Properties and common-functions.xml files into

\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_OSB1\config\xpath-functions

6.       Restart the eclipse, now your custom function is ready to use it in OSB (xquery).

7.       In OSP add the name space, http://www.test.com/xquery/Common-functions/testxpath which is given in common-functions.xml and call your custom function as, tst:returnStr("test”)

8.       Done.
