BizTalk™ Unleashed

Refresh Sample

A common annoyance that crops up while managing BizTalk Messaging is the complexity of refreshing a messaging object. For example, when an underlying envelope specification file is changed, the BizTalk Messaging envelope object must reset the document reference to effect the change in BizTalk Messaging. This sounds simple enough at first glance, but trying to change a document reference in an envelope associated with a port object proves impossible without first removing the reference. Now imagine changing the underlying document specification and refreshing the corresponding envelope where tens or hundreds of ports refer to it. This is an excellent opportunity to put the BizTalk Messaging Configuration object model to work.
