Part 2 of this series focuses on dynamically configuring a WebSphere Application Server web services client using the WS-Security policy assertions emitted from WebSphere and testing it with a the WebSphere Application Server service provider.

Overview

The article is intended for Web services developers and architects who plan to develop Web services across these platforms. You should have a basic understanding of Java™ programming, Web services development, WSDL and SOAP.

WebSphere® Application Server V7 (hereafter called Application Server) includes a set of Java API for XML-Based Web Services (JAX-WS) samples that demonstrate simple message exchange patterns (MEPs) using both a synchronous and asynchronous programming model. The samples support SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2. Using these MEP samples composed with Web services standards such as WS-Addressing (WS-A), WS-Security, WS-Reliable Messaging (WS-RM), and WS-SecureConversation (WS-SC), you can perform a broad range of interoperability tests. These samples demonstrate the use of JavaBean artifacts, static service endpoints and proxy-based clients.

The purpose of this series of articles is to highlight protocol-level interoperability between WebSphere Application Server V7 and Windows Communication Foundation 3.5 (WCF) using dynamic policy to configure WS-SecureConversation. Dynamic policy configuration is a new feature in WebSphere Application Server V7.

In this series of articles, you’ll learn how to:

  1. Statically configure a custom WebSphere WS-SC policy set based on a policy set from the default repository, and modifying provider sample and client sample bindings.
  2. Dynamically configure an Application Server web services client using the WS-Security policy assertions emitted from WebSphere and test it with a the WebSphere Application Server service provider.
  3. Dynamically configure a Windows Communication Foundation client using the WS-Security policy assertions emitted from WebSphere and test it with the Application Server service provider.

Part 2 focuses on dynamically configuring a WebSphere Application Server web services client using the WS-Security policy assertions emitted from WebSphere and testing it with a the WebSphere Application Server service provider.
