Removing connections between nodes

Use the IBM Integration API to remove connections between nodes.

You can disconnect two nodes by using the disconnect() method of the message flow object. You must provide this method with the names of the terminal instances that you want to disconnect.

The following example shows how you can disconnect two nodes:

File msgFlow = new File("main.msgflow");
MessageFlow mf1 = FlowRendererMSGFLOW.read(msgFlow);
MQInputNode mqinNode = (MQInputNode)mf1.getNodeByName("My Input Node");
MQOutputNode mqoutNode = (MQOutputNode)mf1.getNodeByName("My Output Node");
mf1.disconnect(mqinNode.OUTPUT_TERMINAL_OUT, mqoutNode.INPUT_TERMINAL_IN);

Pattern authoring

The following example is the same as the previous example, but for pattern authoring:

MessageFlow mf1 = patternInstanceManager.getMessageFlow("MyFlowProject", "main.msgflow");
MQInputNode mqinNode = (MQInputNode)mf1.getNodeByName("My Input Node");
MQOutputNode mqoutNode = (MQOutputNode)mf1.getNodeByName("My Output Node");
mf1.disconnect(mqinNode.OUTPUT_TERMINAL_OUT, mqoutNode.INPUT_TERMINAL_IN);
