Hi,

I have installed webmethod6.5, and want to develop Adapter, but only found a package “wmSampleAdapter” after installed, how can I got the “full version” of webMethods Adapter Development Kit(ADK)? Help me…

The ADK is installable using the webMethods Installer. It is a separately selectable component.

Now that you know where to get it, I’d offer that it is highly probably that you don’t need it. While it is possible that creating a “real” adapter is the right thing to do, it is far more likely that within a typical installation that out of the box connectivity approaches are more appropriate. Do not underestimate the effort needed to create a “proper” adapter using the ADK.
