What is IBM Tooling for Service Component Architecture?

This Eclipse-based tool contains three funtions: The SCA assembly modeling function helps developers visualize and define the component architecture. The SCA transformation function transforms the assembly diagram (designed by the modeling function) into an SCA project structure and code skeleton. The SCA implementation function helps developers code, test, and package the SCA project.

How does it work?

A typical usage scenario is as follows:

  1. Create an SCA project using the SCA project wizard.
  2. Create composites as needed using the Composite wizard.
  3. Edit the composite diagram using the Assembly editor.
  4. Generate SCA code skeletons using the SCA artifact wizard.
  5. Add application-specific code to complete the development of the SCA application.
  6. Package the SCA application.
