You can update the EGL deployment descriptor
with details that are needed to deploy SOAP and EGL REST-RPC services.
Before you can perform this task you need to have access to
an EGL deployment descriptor. An EGL deployment descriptor is created
when you create an EGL project.
To add web service deployment details, do as follows:
- Open the EGL Deployment Descriptor editor by double-clicking
the name of an EGL deployment descriptor in the EGLSource folder.
For details about creating the file, see "Creating an EGL
deployment descriptor."
- Click Service Deployment.
The Web Service Deployment tab
is displayed.
- Click Add. The Add
Web Services window opens.
- Select or clear the check boxes that indicate whether to
deploy a SOAP service, an EGL REST-RPC service, or both.
-
Add one or more Service parts from the EGL service
parts found list to the EGL service parts to
be generated as web services list. You can do this in
any of the following ways:
- Type the beginning of a name into the Locate EGL
Service Parts field. Specifically, type the beginning
of the package name (if any) or the beginning of the Service part
name (if the part is in the default package). You can use the following
wildcard characters: a question mark (?) to accept one character of
any kind, or an asterisk (*) to accept a series of characters of any
kind.
- Select a service name in the EGL service parts
found list by clicking the name. To select multiple names,
press the Ctrl key and click the names. To select a contiguous set
of names, click a name, press the Shift key, and click the last name
of interest. Then click Add.
- Select all of the listed Service parts by clicking Add
all.
To remove one or more Service parts from the EGL
service parts to be generated as web services list and
move the selected names back to the EGL service parts found,
select the names as described in the second choice for adding parts
and click Remove. To move all of the names
back to that list, click Remove All.
- When the list of Service parts in the EGL service
parts to be generated as web services list reflects your
intent, click Finish. The Web
Service Deployment tab is available again, with an entry
for each Service part being deployed.
- To change the output type for a given Service part, click
an entry in the Services Deployment grid, in the Generate column,
and make a different selection.
- To change values for a given Service part, click an entry
in the Services Deployment grid. In the URI field,
you can specify the low-level qualifier for the address to be used
to access the REST service. In most cases, it is recommended
that you accept the default.
