Step 2. Create Transformation and Configure Ports

Step 2. Create Transformation and Configure Ports

You create the Java transformation and configure the ports in the Mapping Designer. You can use the input and output port names as variables in the Java code. In a Java transformation, you create input and output ports in an input or output group. A Java transformation may contain only one input group and one output group.
In the Mapping Designer, create an active Java transformation and configure the ports. In this example, the transformation is named jtx_hier_useCase.
To use the Java code in this example, you must use the exact names for the input and output ports.
The following table shows the input and output ports for the transformation:
