Using the XML configuration interface to create a Producer definition

You can use the XML configuration interface to create a Producer definition online or offline.

About this task

The main tag to specify when you use the XML configuration interface to create a Producer is the wsrp-producer tag. The following table lists possible subtags that you can specify with the wsrp-producer tag:

Table 1. Tags for creating a Producer definition
Possible subtag for the `wsrp-producer` tag	Description
`wsdl-url`	This subtag describes the URL to the Producer's WSDL document. This subtag is the only tag that is required for creating a Producer when you use an online connection. The other URLs are extracted from this WSDL file.
`port-type`	Each of the Producer ports (Service Description, Markup, Portlet Management, and Registration) can be described by one tag. These tags are required for offline creation.
`parameter`	This subtag is used for registration properties.
`preferences`	This subtag is used for user attributes.
`localedata`	This subtag is used to specify globalization names and titles.
`access-control`	This subtag is used to specify access control.

The following table lists possible attributes that you can specify with the wsrp-producer tag:
