I have built a .Net component to perform some simple string manipulations
like concatenation, padding etc. The component works great with BizTalk
2004,
however, when I try to use the same component in a policy in BizTalk 2006,
it seems as if the methods are not being called. For example,
I have a rule that performs a database lookup using a value that is a
concatenation of 3 elements. The rule looks like this
If
Condition
AND
FromType is equal to SenderId
ToType is equal to SAPNum
FromValue is equal to BREHelper.Concat3Elements(XmlNode1, XmlNode2,
XmlNode3)
Then
Action
SenderNode = ToValue
Assert XmlDoc
The FromType, ToType, FromValue and ToValues are vocabularies defined as
columns from a database table. XmlNode1-3 are nodes from within the
message
that is
passed to the rule engine. The nodes are of type System.String. I see the
component, database connection and Xml message as facts. For some reason
the
rule
never gets fired. One strange think that I have observed trying to
troubleshoot the problem is, if I replace XmlNode1-3 with hardcoded values
the rule fires.
