Use to provide connection details for an Oracle PDK-Java portlet producer.
Element | Description |

id |
Enter the producer's URL, using the following syntax:
For example:
Should you re-enter the wizard, the value for URL Endpoint is editable. |
Service ID |
Enter a unique identifier for this producer. PDK-Java enables you to deploy multiple producers under a single adapter servlet. Different producers are identified by their unique service IDs.
A service ID is required only when a service ID/producer name is not appended to the URL endpoint. For example the following URL endpoint requires the service ID, sample:
However, the following URL endpoint does not need a service ID:
The service ID is used for looking up a file called service_id.properties, which defines the characteristics of the producer, such as whether to display its test page. Use any value to create the service ID. Should you re-enter the wizard, the value for Service ID is editable. |
Use Proxy for Contacting Producer |
Select this checkbox if the application must use an HTTP proxy to contact the producer. The proxy is required in cases where the consumer application and the remote portlet producer are separated by a firewall and an HTTP proxy is needed for communication with the producer.Should you re-enter the wizard, the value for Use Proxy for Contacting Producer is editable.
Proxy Details Provide details about the proxy host and port. Note that the proxy fields on this panel default to the proxy preferences set in Oracle JDeveloper Preferences. (From the Tools menu, choose Preferences, then choose Web Browser and Proxy.)

Associate Producer with External Application |
Select this checkbox if one of the producer's portlets requires authentication. Then, you can select an existing external application from the dropdown list, or click the Create a new External Application or Edit selected External Application icon to launch the Register External Application wizard to create or edit an external application.This option is enabled only when you register the portlet producer with a single application, that is, if you selected Application Resources in the previous page of the wizard. Should you re-enter the wizard, the value for Associate Producer with External Application is editable if an external application has been registered. |
Enable Producer Sessions | Select to enable portlet producer sessions.
Use this option to enable sessions between the producer and the server of the application that is consuming the portlet producer. For sessionless communication between the producer and the server, do not select this option. When sessions are enabled, the server maintains session-specific information, such as user name. Message authentication uses sessions, so if the shared key is set, this option should also be selected. If the producer is registered with the application, then the Enable Producer Sessions property can be edited later. |
