SendPortGroups (BizTalk Server Sample)

  • Artikel

The SendPortGroups sample demonstrates how to enumerate and manage send port groups by using the Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM administration classes.

Prerequisites

  • You must have BizTalk Server administrative privileges to use the administrative objects in this sample.

  • The Windows PowerShell script requires the Windows PowerShell execution policy to allow script execution. For more information, see about_Execution_Policies.

What This Sample Does

This sample demonstrates using the BtsCatalogExplorer and SendPortGroup classes from the Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM namespace to manage send port groups in a BizTalk Server environment. The sample is written in Microsoft Visual C#. A Windows PowerShell example script is also included in this topic. The sample demonstrates the following operations:

  • Connecting to the BizTalk Management database by using the BtsCatalogExplorer class.

  • Creating a new send port group named “My Send Port Group”.

  • Enumerating send port groups to display the newly created send port group.

  • Deleting the new send port group.

    Additional functions are present in the sample but are not executed in the Visual C# version. Some of the additional functions are demonstrated in the PowerShell example script. The additional functions demonstrate the following functionality:

  • Adding a send port to the newly created send port group (covered in the PowerShell example).

  • Deleting a send port from the send port group (covered in the PowerShell example).

  • Starting the send port group.

  • Stopping the send port group.

Where To Find This Sample

The sample is located in the following SDK location:

<Samples Path>\Admin\ExplorerOM\SendPortGroups

The following table shows the files in this sample and describes their purpose.

File(s) Description
SendPortGroups.cs Visual C# source file for operations demonstrated in this sample.
SendPortGroups.sln, SendPortGroups.csproj, SendPortGroups.suo Solution and project files for the sample.

Building and Running This Sample

To build this sample

  1. In Visual Studio, open the solution file SendPortGroups.sln.

  2. In Solution Explorer, double click SendPortGroups.cs to open the sample code.

  3. Find the root.ConnectionString in the CreateSendPortGroup function. You must change the server specification to correctly point to the SQL server hosting your BizTalk Management database. You can also use a period (.) to connect to the local SQL server. For example:

    root.ConnectionString = "Integrated Security=SSPI;database=BizTalkMgmtDb;server=.";

    Caution

    This example or guidance references sensitive information, such as a connection string or a username and password. Never hardcode these values in your code, and make sure that you protect confidential data by using the most secure authentication available. For more information, see the following documentation:

  4. Repeat step 3 for the following functions:

    • EnumerateSendPortGroups

    • DeleteSendPortGroup

  5. Save SendPortGroups.cs.

  6. On the main menu, click Build, and then click Build Solution.

To run this sample

  1. Open a command window and navigate to the following folder:

    <Samples Path>\Admin\ExplorerOM\SendPortGroups\bin\Debug

  2. Run the file SendPortGroups.exe.

Windows PowerShell Script Example

The following Windows PowerShell script fragment can be used to demonstrate the same features of the ExplorerOM classes:
