This property is an 8-byte time stamp (a hexadecimal string)
that uniquely identifies an IMS™ conversation.
When the useConvID property is set to
true:
- The IMS TM
resource adapter returns
this conversation ID to the Java™ client
as part of the output message for each iteration of a conversation.
- The conversation ID is assigned by IMS and
set in the response message header at the end of the first iteration
of the conversation.
- The Java client is responsible
for passing this conversation ID in the input for all subsequent iterations
in order for IMS Connect to process
all iterations of a conversation that comes in from shareable persistent
socket connections.
Restriction: This property is supported for only
SYNC_SEND_RECEIVE and SYNC_END_CONVERSATION interaction verbs. It
is ignored for other interaction verbs. For restrictions that apply
to the use of conversation ID, see the topic on "Conversational transactions
for business process choreography."
