Hi Ian – good qu – there are 2 new channels in BE4 (TCP – using catalog fns, and HTTP SOAP, a regular channel). Docs for custom channels probably didn’t make the cut… I’ll try and find out more and post something over on TIBCOmmunity.
Cheers
Hi Paul,
Any chance of the long awaited return of the custom channels API returning in this release?
Cheers,
Ian.
Waiting impatiently to take it for a ride
when it will be available for download ?
Hi Mohamed – end of May
We’ll start putting up some notes on TIBCOmmunity…
Cheers
