Generating the com.actuate.schemas library

The Apache Axis 2 client ships with BIRT iHub Integration Technology. In the web services examples, the Apache Axis 2 client is in the following directory:

\Actuate\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client

You can generate the source code for the package, com.actuate.schemas, compile the classes, and archive the classes into a library file, using one of the following supplied methods:

Batch

To use the batch file, build.bat, open a command prompt. Navigate to the Axis Client directory. At the command line, type:

build

Apache Ant

To use Apache Ant, you must first install the build tool on your computer. To obtain the software and installation instructions, go to the Apache Ant Project web site at http://ant.apache.org/.

To use Apache Ant, open a command prompt. Navigate to the Axis Client directory.

To generate the source code for the package, com.actuate.schemas, type:

ant

To compile the source code and generate the com.actuate.schemas library, type:

ant dist

To generate Javadoc for the com.actuate.schemas library, type:

ant documentation

Each of these methods performs the operations by setting the properties that specify the locations and file names for the following resources:

WSDL document

The Actuate WSDL document is available at the following URL:

http://localhost:8000/wsdl/v11/axis/all

Source code

The code emitter, WSDL2Java, generates Java source code from the Actuate WSDL document, placing the package, com.actuate.schemas, in the directory, ACTUATE_HOME\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client\source.

Compiled code

Both methods use javac to compile the source code, placing the compiled package, com.actuate.schemas, in the directory, ACTUATE_HOME\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client\build.

Library files

Both methods use jar to archive the package, com.actuate.schemas. The batch method places the library file, idapi.jar, in the directory, \Actuate\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client\lib.

The Apache Ant method places the library file, ActuateClient-${DSTAMP}.jar, in the directory, ACTUATE_HOME\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client\dist\lib. DSTAMP is a variable in the file, build.xml, that represents the time when the JAR file was created. To run the example applications, copy the file, ActuateClient-${DSTAMP}.jar, to the directory, \Actuate\ServerIntTech3\Web Services\Examples\Axis Client\dist\lib, and change the file name to idapi.jar.
