| <context>Using these, you can declare four transmission primitives that an |
| endpoint can support:<ul> |
| <li> <b>One-way</b>: the endpoint receives a message.</li> |
| <li> <b>Request-response</b>: the endpoint receives a message, and sends a |
| correlated message.</li> |
| <li> <b>Solicit-response</b>: the endpoint sends a message, and receives a |
| correlated message.</li> |
| <li> <b>Notification</b>: the endpoint sends a message.</li> |
| </ul><p>You can add an operation to a port type or a port binding.</p><p>To |
| add an operation to a port type, complete the following steps:</p></context> |
| <steps> |
| <step><cmd>In the Design view, right-click your port type.</cmd><info>Click <b>Add |
| Operation</b>. To select the new operation, click the operation in the port |
| type object.</info></step> |
| <step><cmd>In the Properties view, click the <b>General</b> pane.</cmd></step> |
| <step><cmd>In the <b>Name</b> field, type the name of the operation.</cmd> |
| </step> |
| <step><cmd>Right click on the operation to add input, output or fault objects.</cmd> |
| <info>Depending on an operation's inputs and outputs it can be classified |
| as follows:<ul> |
| <li><b>One way operation</b>: input </li> |
| <li><b>Request response operation</b>: input, output </li> |
| <li><b> Solicit response operation</b>: output, input </li> |
| <li><b>Notification operation</b>: output</li> |
| </ul></info></step> |
| <step><cmd>In the Properties view, type any information about the operation |
| you wish the user to read in the <b>Documentation</b> pane.</cmd></step> |
| </steps> |
| <result><p> <b>Tip</b>: You can also create a new operation for your port |
| type using the Outline view. Right click on a port type in the <uicontrol>Port |
| Type</uicontrol> folder and select <uicontrol>Add Operation</uicontrol>.</p></result> |
