Abstract
This sample takes you through the steps to enable an IMS™ application as a web service by using the IMS Phonebook sample application (IVTNO). This sample demonstrates how to enable web services security using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 signed assertion, and how to create a client application for secure HTTPS communication to the IMS Phonebook web service that is deployed on the SOAP Gateway server on z/OS®.
Content
The Apache Axis2 web services framework supports multiple XML data-binding approaches, such as XMLBeans, JiBX data binding, as well as the custom Axis Data Binding (ADB) approach developed specifically for Axis2. This sample demonstrates how to use the WSDL2Java tool that takes a WSDL document and generates fully annotated Java™ code from which to implement a service by using the XMLBeans approach.
You will create a client stub that sends messages via secure HTTPS communication (client authentication) to the Phonebook web service that is deployed on the SOAP Gateway server on the z/OS platform.
Requirements
- IMS Enterprise Suite Version 2.2 SOAP Gateway
- IMS Version 11 or Version 12 with integrated IMS Connect
- The IMS Phonebook sample application files (included with this sample)
- IBM® Rational® Developer for System z® Version 8.0.3.2 or later.
- Optional: If you don't have access to the tool, the generated artifacts are provided for you.
- Required: The FEK.SFEKLOAD data set for Rational Developer for System z must be added to the STEPLIB in the IMS Connect startup procedure for the XML converter function to work.
- Apache Ant for compiling your client application from http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi.
Note: This sample is tested with V1.8.2.
