  1. Web Services Introduction ISYS 546

  2. Web Service • XML Web Service • Web services are classes that are stored on the web which can instantiate and use in both Windows and Web applications.

  3. Creating a Web Service Using a Text Editor • WebService directive: • <%@ WebService Class="CustomerInfo" %> • Import namespaces: • imports System.Web.Services • imports System • Define the web service class. • Add WebMethod attribute to the function declaration. • Note: Web service file extension is ASMX

  4. A Web Service ExampleASPET/TestWebService.ASMX <%@ WebService Class="CustomerInfo" %> imports System.Web.Services imports System imports System.Data imports System.Data.Oledb Public Class CustomerInfo <webMethod()> public Function GetCname(ByVal CID as String) as String dim strConn as string ="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = c:\sales2k.mdb" dim objConn as new OledbConnection(strConn) dim strSQL as string = "select * from customer where CID = '" & CID & "';" dim objComm as new OledbCommand(strSQL,objConn) dim Results as string objConn.open() dim objDataReader as oledbDataReader objDataReader=objComm.executeReader() objDataReader.read() return objDataReader("Cname") end function

  5. Creating a Web Service Using VS • New Project/ASP.Net Web Service

  6. Web Service Description Language (WSDL) • A WSDL file is an XML document containing a complete description of the web service. It shows a web service’s name, methods, and parameter types. • Help page: After entering web service’s URL, a help page is displayed. You can click the Service Description link to see the WSDL file.

  7. HTTP • HTTP Request: • Request line: Method – Get, Post • Header • Body • HTTP Response: • Respons line: HTTP version and status code • Header • Body

  8. Invoking a Web Service with HTTP • Http – Get: • http://dchaolaptop/aspnet/testwebservice.asmx/GetRating?cid=1 • Http – Post: • Use the Action attribute to call the function. • Http-SOAP: Use Http’s Post method to send an XML document in Https’ body section. • Demo: Help page

  9. Simple Object Access ProtocolSOAP • SOAP Request and Response message: • Envelop: An envelop element surrounds the message. It is the root element of a SOAP XML document. • Body: • Request: Contains the method call name and parameter names and values. • Response: Contains the results returned by the method.

  10. Consuming Web Services from a Windows Application • Add a web reference to the web service. • Declare a web service class variable. • Dim myWebService As New dchaolaptop.CustomerInfo() • Demo: UseWebService

  11. Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) • A directory service for web services. • http://uddi.org

  12. Consuming Web Services from a Web Application • Creating a web service proxy class: • A local representation of the web service. • Steps to creating a proxy class: • Use the Wsdl.exe tool to generate the source code file for the proxy class. • Compile the source code file into a DLL file. • Copy the DLL file to the application’s Bin folder.

  13. Use the Wsdl.Exe Tool to Generate the Source Code File • Issue the wsdl.exe command at the Visual Studio command prompt: Start/Programs/microsoft VS .Net/VS .Net Tools/ VS .Net Command prompt The following command example create a CustomerInfo.vb file for the testwebservice.asmx web service. wsdl.exe /l:vb http://dchaolaptop/aspnet/testwebservice.asmx?wsdl

  14. Compile the Source Code File Into a DLL File • The command below create a CustomerInfo.dll Vbc /t:library /r:system.dll,system.web.services.dll,system.xml.dll CustomerInfo.vb

  15. <script runat="server"> sub CallService(s as object, e as eventArgs) dim myProxy as new CustomerInfo lblCname.text=myProxy.GetCname(txtCID.text) lblRating.text=myProxy.GetRating(txtCID.text) end sub </script> <html> </head> <body> <form runat="server"> Enter CID: <asp:textbox id="txtCID" runat="server" /> <asp:label id="lblCname" runat="server"/> <asp:label id="lblRating" runat="server"/> <asp:button text="GetService" onClick="CallService" runat="server" /> </form> </body> </html> Demo: testProxy.aspx
