Add a transaction adapter

Before you begin

Declare transaction adapter in the transaction entity

Procedure

  1. In Studio, navigate in configuration > gsrc to the gw.lob.line.financials package. For Golf Cart, navigate to gw.lob.go.financials.
  2. Right-click the financials node, and then select New > Gosu Class. In the New Gosu Class dialog box, enter the name of the adapter. You specified the name of the adapter in the implementsEntity element of the transaction entity. For Golf Cart, enter GOTransactionAdapter.
  3. In the new Gosu class, write a constructor similar to the following for the gw.lob.ho.GOTransactionAdapter: 
      package gw.lob.go.financials
  uses gw.api.domain.financials.TransactionAdapter
  class GOTransactionAdapter implements TransactionAdapter {
  
    var _owner : entity.GOTransaction
  
    construct(owner : GOTransaction) {
      _owner = owner
    }
  
  }

    This code produces a Gosu error in the class statement that you fix in the next step.

  4. Place the insertion point at the error (after TransactionAdapter) and press Alt-Enter. Click the ImplementMethods command that pops up to open the Select Methods to Implement dialog box. With all listed methods selected, click OK to insert the empty methods into your code.
  5. Write code for the new methods and properties. In most cases, the code for each method is a single line. Examine the transaction adapters for other lines of business as an example.
  6. At this point, you can verify your work. For instructions, see Verify your work.
