OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB

The OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB enables an OpenEdge service hosted on Sonic ESB to be accessed as part of workflow processes managed by Sonic ESB. The OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB supports two methodologies:
*Native Invocation methodology — Sonic ESB calls and AppServer application directly. Native Invocation relies on invocation files that are created in your OpenEdge development environment, and are integrated into the workflow process. Native invocation provides simplified exposure of ABL code and a simplified process for mapping ABL parameters to Sonic messages.
*Web Service methodology — Sonic ESB calls an AppServer application as a Web service. The OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB converts SOAP messages to AppServer protocol on inbound client requests, and converts outbound AppServer protocol to SOAP messages. Sonic ESB uses Web Service Description Language (WSDL) to make the OpenEdge service available to Web service clients, much as does the WSA in the OpenEdge environment
