Subject: Re: Beginner Webobjects Web Service Question
Posted a short while ago, maybe this will help:
Here is a (very short) "getting started". It's probably not
the best way but works surprisingly well. :)
- Create a new "Java WebObjects Application" project the way you
have always done.
- Add the JavaWebServicesSupport framework.
- In a good place (Application constructor for example),
add the following line:
WOWebServiceRegistrar.registerWebService(MyClass.class, true);
- Create a class: "public MyClass extends Object { }", then add
methods like you normally would; you can return what you want,
for example Strings, NSDictionary, NSArray as long as it is
serializable.
Methods that should be visible in the WSDL have to be declared
public.
To get the session in a WebServices environment, call
WOWebServiceUtilities.currentWOContext().session();
Instruct the java compiler to generate debugging information.
In makefile.preamble, add "OTHER_JAVATOOL_FLAGS=-g". If you
don't do this, the WSDL will list each parameter as "in0", "in1"
and so on.
To get the WSDL, call
http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/myApp.woa/ws/MyClass?wsdl
For now, we have done the clients in Flash only but writing a
WOApp that consumes webservices should be easy. Have a look
at all the classes that start with "WOWebService...", they
are quite well
documented. Classes exist to read and decipher the WSDL from
the server and call each operation a webservice provides. You
can even move your client session from one service to another
(Flash does this
automatically).
Basically, all you have to do is to include the framework and
add a call to "WOWebServiceRegistrar", you can even use an
existing class for testing.

I have it. Which is why I posted the question here. It only shows
you how to make one using the direct 2 web services which requires
the data model. Hence my posting.

Please pardon the most basic beginner question. I've been [s]
earching all day and yet to find an answer.
Coming from the .Net world to Java, I am making my foray into Web
Services. Of course being a Mac person, I would REALLY like to use
Web Objects to develop them.
1) Go to: http://developer.apple.com/webobjects/
1) Click on: "Documentation"
2) Click on "Web Services"
3) Click on "WebObjects Web Services Programming Guide" [html | pdf]
with regards,
