Module 1: Creating a SWIFT Solution

In this module, you create a blank BizTalk solution. In the first lesson, you create a new solution by using Microsoft Visual Studio.NET. You also create the individual projects that contain your BizTalk solution components such as schema, maps, orchestrations, and pipeline components.

Note that a solution may include only one BizTalk project, or it may include many BizTalk projects (if the solution consists of numerous projects, which you develop independently and which you must integrate later).

To create a blank BizTalk solution

  1. Start Visual Studio.

  2. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project.

  3. In the Project Types pane of the New Project dialog box, select the BizTalk Projects. In the Templates pane, select Empty BizTalk Server Project.

  4. In the Name box, type SWIFTProject as the solution name.

  5. In the Location box, type <drive>:\labs.

  6. Click OK to open the new project.

    Visual Studio creates an empty solution in Solution Explorer and a new blank solution in the <drive:>\labs folder.

    Proceed to Module 2: Adding a New Schemas Project.
