Renaming a node

This topic describes how to rename a node in the flow editor.

To rename a node:

  1. Select a node on the flow editor canvas.

  2. On the menu bar of the workbench, select Flow > Rename.

  3. The Rename Node window opens.

  4. Type in the new name for the node.

  5. Click OK.

  6. The node is renamed to the name that you specified.

Note: The renamed node may have one or more mapping routines associated with it. If you want the mapping routines still to be associated with the node, then you must rename the mapping routines. The name of a mapping routine file is constructed as shown in Table 1:
Table 1. How the name of a mapping routine file is constructed
Pattern: Example:
<flow_name>_<node_name>.sfmap OperatorIn_1_1_Operator_1.sfmap, where:
  • The flow is OperatorIn_1_1.seqflow

  • The node is Operator_1

To rename a mapping routine:

  1. Open the Navigator view (not the EST Project Explorer!) (see Opening or reopening a view).

  2. Expand the service flow project containing the flow.

  3. Expand the sfmap subfolder.

  4. Find a sfmap file whose node-name part matches the node that you renamed.

  5. Right-click the sfmap file and select Rename.

  6. Type in a new name for the sfmap file, using the new name for the node-name part. For example, if the new name of the node is NewName, then using the example sfmap file name from Table 1, the new name of the sfmap file should be OperatorIn_1_1_NewName.sfmap.
