Before deploying SOAP Web services, you must configure a Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) instance to host the SOAP Web services that you want to deploy or import. To configure a WSA instance, you set properties for it similar to any other Unified Broker product.
After the WSA is configured, you can import or deploy a SOAP Web service and configure additional properties that affect execution of the SOAP Web service. The SOAP Web service properties that are available for configuration depend on the session model of the SOAP Web service (session managed or session free). To verify the session model of a SOAP Web service, check its status. For details on checking SOAP Web service status, see
Viewing the status of a SOAP Web service . For details about configuring SOAP Web service properties, see
Updating a deployed SOAP Web service. For details about the properties available on a SOAP Web service, see
OpenEdge Application Server: Administration.
You must disable a SOAP Web service before you can configure most properties on it. You can verify if the SOAP Web service is disabled by checking its status. The only properties that you can configure for an enabled SOAP Web service include:
If you set other properties while the SOAP Web service is enabled, the property value changes take effect only after you disable and then enable the SOAP Web service again. For details about enabling or disabling a SOAP Web service, see
Enabling or disabling a SOAP Web service for client access.
To configure a Web Services Adapter(for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) instance, you can view or edit properties in the following categories:
You can also create a new Web Services Adapter (for OpenEdge SOAP Web Services) instance, view its status, or delete an instance you no longer need.
