We are embarking on a major upgrade from XE (coexistence) to E9.1 on Wintel. Part of our project plan calls for developing some custom outbound interfaces not as UBE objects, but rather, in .net.
I am looking for some advice as to a best practice of 1) having a .net process be initiated from E1 Scheduler. 2) How best to have .net process be 'aware' of it's E1 environment: userid, environment, datasources, pathcodes, etc.
We are using consultants to assist with the overall upgrade, but then we will routinely be wanting to write extract/outbound process in .net, as we do not have any trained Oneworld developers.
My presumption is that a UBE can be written that invokes the .net process. The UBE could establish the needed E1 environmental data either as parameters on the call, or written to a config type text file unique for each submitted instance.
I can also believe there might be a means to have the .net process interogate the necessary E1 system tables to determine all the needed info. I would not know how to begin to determine the best means to do this.
Any comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
