How to Remove Adapter Defaults

To remove an adapter default, you must delete the code that defines it from its base adapter's .xml file.

Search for	Example	Results
A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

To remove an adapter default:

Locate the adapter on which the adapter default was based. (Adapter Management > Resources pane).

Tip Alternatively, you can access the adapter from the Integration Point pane by right-clicking the relevant integration point and selecting Go To Adapter.

Right-click the adapter and click Edit Adapter Source.

In the adapter's .xml file, locate the following line:

Non-Jython adapters:
<adapterTemplate name="<adapter_default>" description="">
Jython adapters:
<adapterJythonTemplate name="<adapter_default>" description="">

where adapter_default is the name of the adapter default.

Delete the all the code from this opening tag to the closing </adapterTemplate> (or </adapterJythonTemplate>) tag.

Caution Do not delete the following line: </adapterTemplates>

Save your changes.
