21 Nov 2006 Learn how you can use Apache Muse to create a WS-DistributedManagement (WSDM)-compliant interface for a manageable resource. In this tutorial, you'll see how to design the Web service interface for the resource, generate code for the implementation, and deploy the code as a Web application. The manageable resource focus of this tutorial is the ubiquitous Apache HTTP Server, commonly-referred to as "httpd." After completing this tutorial, you should have a Muse-based application that lets any WSDM-compliant management client manipulate the httpd resource.
In this tutorial
- Installing and understanding the Apache HTTP server
- Designing a WSDL, Part 1: The resource properties
- Designing a WSDL, Part 2: The resource operations
- Designing a WSDL, Part 3: Creating the XML
- Designing a WSDL, Part 4: Adding the HTTP definitions
- Code generation with WSDL2Java
- Implementing the HTTP server operations
- Implementing the HTTP Server operations
- Making the implementation more configurable
- Building and deploying the WSDM endpoint
- Testing the WSDM endpoint
Prerequisites
This tutorial is written for Java programmers whose skills and experience are at an intermediate level. You should also have a solid understanding of the concepts and XML schemas that are defined in the WS-ResourceFramework (WSRF) and WSDM standards. Finally, it is expected that you have tried the introductory tutorial (see Resources for a link) that is included with the Muse 2.0 distribution and have successfully run the sample applications.
System requirements
To run the application that you build in this tutorial, you need to have Apache Tomcat installed on your system. Keep in mind that Tomcat 5.5 requires Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) 1.5, so if you are using Java SE 1.4, you'll want Tomcat 4.1 or 5.0. The work is shown using a Microsoft Windows console, but the tutorial can be completed by UNIX® and Linux® users as well.
