suppose say you have a particular field in an xml and the xpath for the same is;

root/seg1/seg2/seg3/seg4/seg5/seg6/seg7/seg8/field, so instead of always using the whole xpath you can store it as a context object. It is like a variable say fieldcontextobject = root/seg1/seg2/seg3/seg4/seg5/seg6/seg7/seg8/field and in further development u can just ref. fieldcontextobject instead of the whole xml !!!!

Hi Sita,

Context objects are used in receiver determination step at the runtime based upon the input message .In input message we define the context object as any field this field can later be used to determine receivers from the list of receivers based upon its value

To locate an y particular field in message we use XPATH expression .This is used in context object

Hi Seeta ,

When you want to do the conditional recevier deternimation you use the context objects . You create context objects for any element in your message type . The context variable at runtime will have actual value of that variable .

You create Context vaiable in your message interface where under the context tabl you get your message structure and you choose a particular elememtn which you want to refer at runtime and create context object for that .

In ID you refer this variable and do the receiver determination .
