MECDataTranslator class
The MECDataTranslator
is a class that is used for translating data between the back-end application and business messages. The MECDataTranslator
class uses translation data from the Mapper database. Metadata for translations is automatically created in the Mapper database when a mapping is published and when a published mapping is republished.
Java functions in the mapping use the MECDataTranslator
class.
There is an older data translation class, it is called DataTranslator
. This older class works similar to the MECDataTranslator
class. Except that in the DataTranslator
class, the translation data is stored in the M3 database and not in the Mapper Database. So, the DataTranslator
class can only be used with M3. This guide does not describe the functionality for the DataTranslator
class and MECDataTranslator
class. See Javadoc for EC Utilities.
