Can anybody know how to convert the below java code to a webservice, so that I can pass the input paramaters directly to that webservice. I tried of converting java code to webservice in jdeveloper, but because of static void main it is not converting. Can somebody help me in this issue.
this is the original executable java code.
package com.holx.api.test;
import java.util.HashMap;
import com.agile.api.APIException;
import com.agile.api.AgileSessionFactory;
import com.agile.api.IAdmin;
import com.agile.api.IAgileClass;
import com.agile.api.IAgileList;
import com.agile.api.IAgileSession;
import com.agile.api.IAutoNumber;
import com.agile.api.IDataObject;
import com.agile.api.INode;
import com.agile.api.IProperty;
import com.agile.api.IServiceRequest;
import com.agile.api.PropertyConstants;
import com.agile.api.ServiceRequestConstants;
import com.agile.px.ActionResult;
import java.net.URL;
public class TestAgileAPI {
//     @Override
//     public ActionResult doAction(IAgileSession arg0, INode arg1,
//               IDataObject arg2) {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
//          return null;
     * @param args
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          IAgileSession m_session = null;
          IAdmin admin = null;
          IAgileClass cls = null;
     String sr="PR-KB00028";
String userName="*******";
String password="*******";
String URL="*********";
          try {
               HashMap params = new HashMap();
               params.put(AgileSessionFactory.USERNAME, userName);
               params.put(AgileSessionFactory.PASSWORD, password);
               AgileSessionFactory instance = AgileSessionFactory.getInstance(URL);     
               m_session = instance.createSession(params);     
               admin = m_session.getAdminInstance();
               cls = admin.getAgileClass( "ProblemReport" );
               IServiceRequest psr = (IServiceRequest)m_session.createObject( "ProblemReport", sr);
          psr.setValue(ServiceRequestConstants.ATT_COVER_PAGE_DESCRIPTION, "KB-Test-20121400");
          } catch (APIException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          } finally {
               m_session.close();
Can somebody help me in converting this code into a webservice which accepts String SR as input from soa.
Thanks,

Hi Francois,
I never tried to use a webservice in the value help wizzard, so I don't know if it works or not.
But for your problem you can build your own value help to avoid the problem.
You told us that the webservice works in the storyboard. The value help wizard "only" creates a popup iView in your model and assigns the output field of the popup to an input field in a form.
Maybe as a solution you can insert a popup to the model by yourself. Assign the output field of your popup to the input field for which you want to have the value help. Inside the popup iView you can use your custom built webservice.
I know that this is a little bit circuitous, but I think it will work.
