In the left pane, the TelnetTarget node changes to reflect that a connection was made.
Selecting a service node will provide the details of the RPC connection and the associated
XML request and response schemas for the service in the right pane of iWay Explorer.
Right-clicking on a service node will allow you to test execute the service and to edit the
connection details and default parameter values for the service. If you have edited the
service and want to restore the original values from the imported project, a Restore
Settings option is available.
Understanding iWay Business Services
iWay Explorer provides web developers with a simple, consistent mechanism for extending the
capabilities of the iWay Emulation Adapter (3270/5250). The iWay Business Services Provider
(iBSP) exposes functionality as iWay Business Services (also known as web services). It serves
as a gateway to heterogeneous back-end applications and databases.
A web service is a self-contained, modularized function that you can publish and access across
a network using open standards. It is the implementation of an interface by a component and
is an executable entity. For the caller or sender, a web service can be considered a black box
that may require input and that delivers a result. Web services integrate within an enterprise
as well as across enterprises on any communication technology stack, whether asynchronous
or synchronous, in any format.
Creating iWay Emulation Adapter (3270/5250) iWay Business Services
When using iWay Telnet Designer in RPC mode, iWay Telnet Designer automatically creates an
XML document for the RPC session that is saved. This XML document is a script that is based
on the saved session. You can create an iWay Business Service (web service) for the iWay
Emulation Adapter (3270/5250) using this generated XML document.
Procedure:
