6 Oracle CEP IDE for Eclipse and the Event Processing Network 6-1 6 Oracle CEP IDE for Eclipse and the Event Processing Network The Oracle CEP Event Processing Network EPN is the central concept in an Oracle CEP application. It is the primary point where application components are wired together. Using Oracle CEP IDE for Eclipse, you can use an EPN Editor that provides a graphical view of the EPN and offers visualization and navigation features to help you build Oracle CEP applications. This section describes how to use the editor and the information it displays, including: ■ Section 6.1, Opening the EPN Editor ■ Section 6.2, EPN Editor Overview ■ Section 6.3, Navigating the EPN Editor ■ Section 6.4, Using the EPN Editor

6.1 Opening the EPN Editor

You can open the EPN Editor from either the project folder or a context or configuration file of an Oracle CEP application.

6.1.1 How to Open the EPN Editor from a Project Folder
