Method Detail

clientForDiscoveryEPR

public static BaseServiceClient clientForDiscoveryEPR(EndpointReference discoEPR,
                                                      DiscoveryService.WSFServiceType serviceType)
                                               throws WSCException

This method takes a discovery EndpointReference and a WSFServiceType and returns an instantiated service client.

The process is:

1. Instantiate, and then send a request to the DiscoveryService for the service type specified
2. Instantiate a service with the first

Parameters:

discoEPR - the endpoint reference for the discovery service that will be used to discover the specified service

serviceType - an enumerated reference to a WSF service that the client library supports

Returns:

Throws:

WSCException

boostrapDiscoveryEPRFromDefaultAS

public static EndpointReference boostrapDiscoveryEPRFromDefaultAS(AuthenticationService.AuthMechanism authMechanism)
                                                           throws WSCException

Attempts to retrieve a Discovery Service Endpoint Reference from the default Authentication Service.

This convenience method assumes that there are values set in OpenLibertyBootstrap for authenticationServiceUrl, authUsername, and authPassword.

Parameters:

authMechanism -

Returns:

Throws:

WSCException

java.lang.NullPointerException - if authMechanism is null

queryDiscoveryServiceForServiceEPRs

public static java.util.List<EndpointReference> queryDiscoveryServiceForServiceEPRs(DiscoveryService discoService,
                                                                                    java.lang.String[] serviceTypes,

                                                                                    java.lang.String[] securityMechIDs)

Retrieves a list of EndpointReference objects from the specified Discovery Service using the supplied parameters.

Parameters:

discoService -

serviceTypes -

providerIDs -

securityMechIDs -

Returns:
