Making the Client

• I ran wsdl2java on the wsdl url, and GLUE generated the Helper:


// generated by GLUE/wsdl2java on Tue Sep 09 22:07:30 EDT 2003
import electric.registry.Registry;
import electric.registry.RegistryException;

public class CalculatorHelper
  {
  public static ICalculator bind() throws RegistryException
    {
    return bind( "http://localhost:8004/glue/calculator.wsdl" );
    }

  public static ICalculator bind( String url ) throws RegistryException
    {
    return (ICalculator) Registry.bind( url, ICalculator.class );
    }
  }
 

• And the interface:


// generated by GLUE/wsdl2java on Tue Sep 09 22:07:30 EDT 2003
public interface ICalculator
  {
  float add( float x, float y );
  float subtract( float x, float y );
  float multiply( float x, float y );
  float divide( float numerator, float denominator );
  }
 

• Does the interface look familiar?  It should
• From here, we can develop a client of our choice to interface with the web service.  Given our time constraints, I'll leave that up to you.  :)
• Questions?
