Web Service & Reader

I have just made a test connection to a web service.
When I view the form in Acrobat, it works fine..
When I tried to view the form through Reader it does not work.
I thought that this was because I needed to reader enable to form (extend features)
However after I extend the features with Acrobat and save the form, it still will not connect to the web service?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
Web services will not work in Reader, unless the form is Reader Enabled using the full Adobe LC Reader Extensions ES2 server product.
A summary of deployment options is here: http://assurehsc.ie/blog/index.php/2010/05/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reader/
At the end of the post there is a link to the summary (in PDF).
Hope that helps,
Niall

Web Service Call from PL/SQL

Hi Gurus,
I am calling a Web Service(RoadNet Application) from Oracle PL/SQL(11g Database). My code is working for simple xml type to get the response. But when I tried with a complex XML type, I am getting the response, but it does not have the complete output.

Role of Web Services in cross organisation BPM

What are the pros and cons of using web service based decentralise approach for managing Inter-Organisational BPM? What are the challenges and what are the benefits?
Regards
Ganesh Sawant

PROS:
Using the Webservices you can trigger the BPM Process and pass the values from the web dypro component which will available for the end user and pass it on to the BPM Proess.
We can use EJB as a webservice, where the automated activity in the BPM can output the value based on the logic in the EJB Function. We can manage the automated activity which runs in the back ground of the process as per our logic and returns the value to the next task.
CONS
Using Webservices in the various activity with fewer data is not advisable as it takes longer time to deploy the process. And any change in the data in the webservices requires regularly re importing of the web services.

Is Web-Services the only way to trigger Workflow on Time-Based conditions?

<p>
Here is the requirement:
When a Custom Object's record is set to a specific status and it hasn't been modified in 7 days an email should be sent to the owner to notify them to update the record.
Any thoughts on how we can do this?
Thanks,
Dan

Tim, I would recommend that you post this question on the CRM On Demand Integration Development forum. Also, some of our On Demand partners are capable of creating this functionality with web services.

Publishing Web Services from NWDS in PI 7.4

Dear All,
We have a scenario where we publish a Web Service to be consumed by a 3rd party which in turn calls an ABAP proxy for an acknowledgement (Synchronous Call).
I have followed the various bloggs and SCN discussion points and have published a Web Service to the Service Registry by generating a Java Bean Skeleton from the Service Interface in NWDS.
I have generated an Integration Flow (simple Point to Point using a SOAP Sender and HTTP_AAE Receiver to the Proxy) and deployed it on the Integration Server. All OK at this point
The problem I have is that when I try and test the deployed Service through WS Navigator, the Proxy isn't called and I get a blank Response from the Web Service call. We don't have the option to use a SOAP Test Client (like SOAP UI) due to security reasons.
Could anyone give me some pointers as to why this isn't working.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark -
Go to Integration Directory(swing client)-> open the corresponding ICo -> from the menu item (Integrated Configuration) -> select the option "Display Wsdl".
Use that URL to test your web service.

Bulk batch Jax-WS web services and memory concerns

I have a requirement to create a web service client to upload 150,000+ records from our database. My main question is whether others are creating web services to process bulk data and how they handle memory concerns.
I began with the standard API, populating the jax-b annotated beans created from the wsimport. I used JConsole to analyze memory usage. I noticed that there is a sharp spike in the plot of the heap usage (from 200MB to 800MB) right after the invoke method call.
The problem is that the max heap size on our app server is set to 1GB and since this application shares it with other applications I keep getting a out of memory error.
I was asked to look for alternatives, so I tried using the Dispatch API creating the payload by sub-tree marshaling to StAX. The issue I then ran into is that I have a outputstream and the dispatch api is expecting an inputstream. I tried the options found here http://ostermiller.org/convert_java_outputstream_inputstream.html
However after using jconsole to analyze again it appears the writing to a temp file or using a byte array increases the amount of memory being used to almost equivalent of using the standard API. I tried using piped streams in separate threads and the single threaded circular buffer methods, but the application seems to hang after the invoke method call.
Any help would be appreciated.

also, you could "page" the data, returning some max number of records in each page of data and a "next page" cookie. this is the standard approach to returning bulk data from a web service.

Using request object in java web service code

Hi,
I am working on a java web service and require the request object in my code.
This is because i want to get the name of the user who is using this web service.
I am getting error in the line
IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
Please guide me how to use the request object.
Please also suggest if there is any other way to get the name of the user who is using the web service.

Simple answer: This is not possible due a web service doesn't has such request objects.
If you want to use the user information you have to pass it from the programm logic you are calling the web service. When you have e.g. a JSPDynPage you can read out the user information and supply this information for your web service.

Invoking P6 web services using PL/SQL block

Hi Team,
We have requirement like
Oracle jobs will invoke PL/SQL code to authenticate and establish a session with the P6 Web services.
Web service will export Project data from One Primavera database as an XML and copy to common location.
Then this XML project files will be imported into archive database.
Could anyone help me how I can establish sessio between Pl/SQL and P6 webservices?
Please let me know if you need any more information.
Regards,
Santosh
Edited by: SantoshV Singh on Apr 29, 2013 10:09 PM

It will be no different than connecting to any web services through PL/SQL which is pretty hard to do and if you are asking how to do it then you have a steep learning curve ahead of you and not a great deal in the way of good examples out there.
I wouldn't even attempt the approach you suggest. Instead I would probably write a Java application to do it and use your PL/SQL to enqueue a message that routed to the Java application. Then the java application with the Web Services support and P6 client would be easier to do what you want with web services.

Web service basic question

Well I am new to web services. I have a small doubt. We are trying to develop a tool which uses web service that standards the communication between my tool and different surveillance
systems.
What my tools should do is, it needs to get data from different surveillance
system using common API.
My first question is
1) Should I implement a web service or a client. I guess the answer should be, implement a client. if so, should I make my WSDL public and tell them and if you want to provide me the data you have implement a web service definition corresponding to my client. I am a bit confused here. So pleeeeeeeease help. I need to submit my design to my professor by the end of the week.

If your tool needs to be called from the surveillance systems, you could publish a web service and give the wsdl to the various surveilance systems. Then when they need to contact you they can invoke your web service.

Nested Web Services in ES3

Hi,
I am currently using LiveCycle ES and having problems invoking nested web services on forms. It looks like I have to use flattened web services. I will be upgrading in a few months to ES3. Does it allow invocation of nested web services on forms?

The 9.1 GTC Webservices provisioning connector does SPML only. It cannot consume a generic non SPML WSDL and generate stubs (no matter how much the documentation makes it sound like it can).
That said, I'm not sure I totally understand your question. An SMPL web service provider is going to have a WSDL and it can be run by a servlet or any other server technology (like .net) capable of exposing functionality as a web service.

Web service invocation using pl/sql

Hi
Am trying to invoke a webservice using PL/SQL.
Any ideas?
I will be recieving the response as XML and then present the information using XSL which I have ready.
Or any other ideas to invoke Siebel Analytics report from portal (no BPEL). I have WSDL.

How to check resource existance using standard web-services?

Hi,
There was the web-service KMNodeServiceStrdWSVi_Document in the SAP EP 7.0 that exposed the function "exists" checking whether the folder exists or not.
SAP EP 7.3 does not contain KMNodeServiceStrdWSVi_Document web-service and I did not find any function in the RepositoryFramework web-service.
Is there any other web-service providing this functionality?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Arun,
I got the data in the context in the response node .But the problem is that the web service returns an array of objects which inturns has array ob object, I m only able to get those values from the response node from the context which are simple string type.Could u pls tell me how can i get the complex data which is present in the response node in the context.
Can i traverse the node(i.e) the rray in the context.CAn u tell me wat can i do.The response node has the complex structure as defined in the WSDL file ,i just need to get the data present in the array of that context which is populated by the web service.

How to recombine exported tifs using IPM Web Services

Just like the title says, I would like to recombine exported single page tifs from one document, into a single multipage tif using the Web SDK. There is a thick client API call (ExportedDocument.RecombineDocument(Range)) to do this, but I cannot find its web service equivalent.
