  • 1.  API to search for a task from MWS without WmTaskClient?

    Posted Thu August 07, 2008 06:01 PM

    Hi,

    Is there a way of searching for a task from MWS without using the WmTaskClient services on IS? MWS provides an API to update tasks but I can’t find a similar thing to the search.

    Cheers
    Bruno

    The Task Engine API and Service Reference is available on the Advantage Bookshelf at: https://advantage.webmethods.com/bookshelf_taskengine

    It shows how to get the WSDLs for the Task Engine API.

    Hi Mark,

    But can’t I just access these services directly thru some Java API instead of using the web services?
    I guess in the end the web services will be using some Java API below to do the stuff, and since I’m already on MWS why have the web services overhead on top?

    There is a handy JavaWrapper for the WebServices, it is covered in the javadocs on the sdk at: http://ajax-softwareag.com/articles/Y4LCDN/Caf-7-1-1JavaDocs/com/webmethods/caf/portalclient/task/package-summary.html

    However, since you are working in-proc (from MWS), then you can use the ContentProvider APIs that are covered here: http://ajax-softwareag.com/articles/Y4LCDN/Caf-7-1-1JavaDocs/com/webmethods/caf/faces/data/task/package-summary.html

    Hope this helps.
