Hi all,

I imported a WSDL for my project and created the Egl Client Interface, tested and worked well in the development environment.
However I would like to know if it is possible or how I do it to make the webservice address dynamic mode, because the URL address of this WSDL in production will be different. I want to avoid the work of manually changing the URL to generate and export the application.

Hi Arakaki

we are building EGL web transactions - using jsp as user interface. We have added this code, that may give you an idea of how do solve your problem.

I guess you can do similar coding in EGL or java. The use of the "setEndpoint" is the way to use dynamic webservice address.

We have added this to a JSP:

myProxy proxy = new myProxy();

proxy._getDescriptor().setEndpoint(myURL.getTextValue() + "/" + myEndpoint.getTextValue());

hope this helps

Hi Morten,

Thank you for responding and sharing your experience with us.
Your solution is valid, so I understood, you are invoking your service via external Java program.
In our case, we are migration Vagen Cobol aplications to Java, keeping the use Text user interface(TUI). 
We are calling the webservice via Java generated by EGL deployement descriptor, in "service bindings configurations" option,  by WSDL imported.
In this EGL java generated, I found the setEndpoint instruction that you mentioned, but the program setting the URL webservice address in hardcode.
Maybe we need search more. Thanks for your help!

Hi Arakaki,

In EGL it will be something like this:

// Declare serviceserviceObject TheirService{@WebBinding {wsdlLocation = "EGLSource/wsdl/service.wsdl", wsdlService = "operation1", wsdlPort = "operation1Port"}};// Set endpoint depending on environmentlocation string;case(environment)   when("TST")     location = "http://testserver.com:9080/adapter/service/theservice";   otherwise     location = "http://prodserver.com:9080/adapter/service/theservice";   endServiceLib.setWebServiceLocation(serviceObject, location);

Hi Ortwin,

Hi Ortwin,

Thanks a lot for you tips.

Hi Morten,

We got a solution after joinning the tips of Ortwin  and more a function, 

First:  Create a new parameter in runnunit.properties, example:

dataexpress.service.location=http://dataexpress/CallCobol/CallCobol.asmx

Second:  in egl source code

CallCobolSoap CallCobolSoap{@BindService{bindingKey = "CallCobolSoap12"}};

ServiceLocation string = sysLib.getProperty("dataexpress.service.location");

ServiceLib.setWebServiceLocation(CallCobolSoap, ServiceLocation);

CallCobolSoap.invokeWithId(arg_1, arg_2);

Then edit runnunit.properties if we need change a new url location.

regards,

Hsieh
