Introduction

The C module generates the source code for the ANSI-C-compatible data structures and (de)serialization functions that can be used in conjunction with libxml2 to (de)serialize the REST resources as they are represented as XML data.

The generated C source code depends on the XML Reader API and the XML Writer API as well as the <time.h>, <string.h>, and <stdlib.h> C standard libraries.

REST XML Example


#include <novaglobalapi.c>
//...

xmlTextWriterPtr writer = ...; //set up the writer to the url.
novaglobalapi_ns0_countryDto *request_element = ...;
xmlTextReaderPtr reader = ...; //set up the reader to the url.
novaglobalapi_ns0_actionStatus *response_element = ...;
//set up the novaglobalapi_ns0_countryDto...
xml_write_novaglobalapi_ns0_countryDto(writer, request_element);
response_element = xml_read_novaglobalapi_ns0_actionStatus(reader);

//handle the response as needed...

//free the novaglobalapi_ns0_countryDto
free_novaglobalapi_ns0_countryDto(request_element);
//free the novaglobalapi_ns0_actionStatus
free_novaglobalapi_ns0_actionStatus(response_element);

Java Client Library

Created Jan 9, 2016 3:20:02 PM

Introduction

The Java client-side library is used to access the Web service API for this application.

The JAX-WS client-side library is used to provide the set of Java objects that can be serialized to/from XML using JAXB. This is useful for accessing the REST endpoints that are published by this application.

REST Example (Raw JAXB)


java.net.URL url = new java.net.URL(baseURL + "/country");
JAXBContext context = JAXBContext.newInstance( ActionStatus.class, CountryDto.class );
java.net.URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.connect();

Unmarshaller unmarshaller = context.createUnmarshaller();
Marshaller marshaller = context.createMarshaller();
marshaller.marshal(countryDto, connection.getOutputStream());
ActionStatus result = (ActionStatus) unmarshaller.unmarshal( connection.getInputStream() );
//handle the result as needed...

REST Example (Jersey client)


com.sun.jersey.api.client.Client client = com.sun.jersey.api.client.Client.create();

ActionStatus result = client.resource(baseUrl + "/country")
  .entity(countryDto)
  .post(ActionStatus.class);

//handle the result as needed...

Objective C Client Library

Created Jan 9, 2016 3:20:00 PM

Introduction

The Objective C module generates the source code for the Objective C classes and (de)serialization functions that can be used in conjunction with libxml2 to (de)serialize the REST resources as they are represented as XML data.

The generated Objective C source code depends on the XML Reader API and the XML Writer API as well as the base OpenStep foundation classes.

REST XML Example


#import <novaglobalapi.h>
//...

NOVAGLOBALAPINS0CountryDto *requestElement = [[NOVAGLOBALAPINS0CountryDto alloc] init];
NSData *requestData; //data holding the XML for the request.
NOVAGLOBALAPINS0ActionStatus *responseElement;
NSData *responseData; //data holding the XML from the response.
NSURL *baseURL = ...; //the base url including the host and subpath.
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString: @"/country" relativeToURL: baseURL];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url];
NSURLResponse *response = nil;
NSError *error = NULL;
[request setHTTPMethod: @"POST"];
[request setValue:@"application/xml" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];  

//set up the NOVAGLOBALAPINS0CountryDto...

requestData = [requestElement writeToXML];
[request setHTTPBody: requestData];

//this example uses a synchronous request,
//but you'll probably want to use an asynchronous call
responseData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
NOVAGLOBALAPINS0ActionStatus *responseElement = [NOVAGLOBALAPINS0ActionStatus readFromXML: responseData];
[responseElement retain];

//handle the response as needed...
