    All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `EndpointReference` | `convertEndpoint(javax.xml.namespace.QName targetType, org.w3c.dom.Element sourceEndpoint)` Converts an endpoint reference from its XML representation to another type of endpoint reference.
    `java.util.Map` | `getConfigLookup(EndpointReference epr)`
    `EndpointReference` | `resolveEndpointReference(org.w3c.dom.Element epr)` Resolve an end-point reference from its XML representation.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### resolveEndpointReference

          EndpointReference resolveEndpointReference(org.w3c.dom.Element epr)

      Resolve an end-point reference from its XML representation. The nature of the representation is determined by the integration layer. The BPEL engine uses this method to reconstruct `EndpointReference` objects that have been persisted in the database via `EndpointReference#toXML(javax.xml.transform.Result)` method.
      Parameters:
        `XML` - representation of the EPR
      Returns:
        reconsistituted `EndpointReference`

    - #### convertEndpoint

          EndpointReference convertEndpoint(javax.xml.namespace.QName targetType,
                                            org.w3c.dom.Element sourceEndpoint)

      Converts an endpoint reference from its XML representation to another type of endpoint reference.
      Parameters:
        `targetType` -
        `sourceEndpoint` -
      Returns:
        converted EndpointReference, being of targetType

    - #### getConfigLookup

          java.util.Map getConfigLookup(EndpointReference epr)

      Parameters:
        `epr` -
      Returns:
