Hello- A new version of the WSDM tooling is now available. The objective of the tooling is to relieve WSDM adopters from having to deal with various web services related artifacts and instead use an UI based approach to define manageability interfaces and generate endpoints from them. The set of plugins for WSDM tooling provide an integrated IDE based approach to building Muse endpoints and a managed agent explorer to test your generated endpoints or introspect existing endpoints. New features include: - Creation of standard artifacts like WSDL, XSD and RMD file (the 4.3 version used EMF models for serialization) - Better code generation with support for different platforms and runtimes - Service group rules editor, Relationships editor - Enhancements to the capability, resource type and deployment descriptor editor - Support for topic definitions - General UI cleanup and bug fixes - Packaging of Muse 2.2 and Axis2 1.1 - Support for importing WSDLs, XSDs and Java classes for capability definition - New notification broker within Eclipse platform and a WS-N consumer - Managed agent explorer support for notifications, subscriptions, relationships and service groups
The WSDM tooling was a tech preview in the Eclipse Test and Performance Tools platform (http://www.eclipse.org/tptp) project. The last release was part of TPTP 4.3. While the tooling was built as part of the project for the 4.4 release, it is now migrating to the Eclipse COSMOS project (http://www.eclipse.org/cosmos). While the transition is in progress you can obtain and install the WSDM tooling using the following instructions: http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/monitoring/documents/tutorials/tptp_wsdm_setup_4.4.html Please look at the following article on instructions for reporting bugs or posting comments/queries on the TPTP mailing list: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/autonomic/library/ac-wsdmos.html#N100B4 Please post any questions or comments about the tooling on the TPTP mailing list until the move to COSMOS is completed.
