Downloads
As an aid to readers of J2EE Platform Web Services, we have established an FTP site for the book from which readers can download code, binaries, and related resources. Links to the principle directories on the FTP site and explanatory notes follow.
- /src
- These subdirectories contain all source binaries used in the book for convenience. Since some of the packages may be outdated or unsupported, the binaries are included here.
- /labs
- This subdirectory contains all lab exercises, and program excerpts.
- /unix and /windows
- This subdirectories contain Chapter 8 case study source codes for Unix and Windows platform respectively. They are basically identical, except that the file locations of the sample_soap_keystore are different. Unix version points to /opt/myFX/requester but Windows version points to c:/opt/myFX/requester.
- /setup
- This subdirectory contains all setup files, libraries for JWSDP and Axis. I've combined all jar files from various downloads/packages to save configuration time. This directory contains all jar files and configuration files that are necessary to deploy in the demo environment. Users of the book can follow the instructions in the Appendix C to download and configure. But these files are placed here for convenience.
- /others
- This subdirectory contains a set of self-paced tutorial materials. It includes Appendix A resources (URLs) [Ed. Note—see also the links page on this site] and a set of slides that summarizes each chapter. These slides are suitable for self-paced training in conjunction with the hands-on lab exercises.
Remarks
All subdirectories are zipped in a jar file with a shorter file name. They contain the same information as the child subdirectories. They are zipped for easy portability across machines and platforms. Jar files can be opened and unzipped using "jar -xvf <zipped files>" on Unix platform, or dragging them to Winzip.
The necessary jar files and program sources (e.g. under /unix) are now zipped for Solaris OE for convenience. These files can be extracted by "jar -xvf <zipped files> in the designated directories.
