Client applications created with Microsoft’s .NET framework can access Web services hosted in EAServer; wsdl.exe generates the required client side proxy from the WSDL document on EAServer. The C# (“C-sharp”) compiler csc.exe compiles the client executable program that accesses the Web service through the client-side proxy.
The example in this section describes the steps for creating both the server-side Web service and client-side proxy and executable program. For more information about .NET, go to Microsoft’s .NET Web site.
Only primitive data types are supported as Web services
accessible by .NET clients, not user-defined data types. See Chapter 3, “Components, Datatypes, and Type Mappings,” for a list of
supported data types.
In this sample, you:
Deploy a Web service using an example from a previous tutorial for this step. See “Exposing a stateless EJB as a Web service”.
Install Microsoft’s .NET SDK on your machine and add the .NET libraries to your environment.
Run .NET’s wsdl.exe command or a batch file to create the client proxy.
Create the client executable program and compile it using csc.exe.
Run the client program to invoke the service.
The source files are in the DotNetSample subdirectory. Instructions for running the tutorial are in the file readme.txt.
