Step 1: Import Data Types

Before we can create a method to use identifers in our StockManager, we need to import the data types for our service to use.

Copy the Data Types Schema

• Copy <CAGRID_LOCATION>\projects\identifiers-namingauthority-gridsvc\schema\IdentifiersNAService (containing the IdentifiersNAServiceTypes.xmd and org.cagrid.identifiers.namingauthority.xmd files) to <StockManager>\schema.

Import the Data Types

Import the data types into Introduce via an import from the file system:

• If you closed Introduce after Phase 6, then reopen it and open the generated service from Phase 5 for modification.
  
  

  %> cd CAGRID_LOCATION
  
  %> ant introduce 
  

• In the modification viewer, select the Types tab.
• In the panel on the right, select the Add/Remove tab.
• Within this tab, select the File System tab.
• Browse to the <CAGRID_LOCATION>\projects\identifiers-namingauthority-gridsvc\schema\IdentifiersNAService directory and select the file "org.cagrid.identifiers.namingauthority.xsd".
• Click Add.
• The identifier data types have now been added in the Imported Data Types tree on the left.
  

• Save the service.

Adding Identifiers
