Description:

This documment outlines the procedure to run the sample java web services code in Service Desk Manager 12.x which is available in the $NX_ROOT\\samples\sdk\websvc\java\test2_basic directory. Sample JWS.java demonstrates the login(), getHandleForUserid(), createRequest(), createChangeOrder(), createTicket() and logout() methods.

Solution:

To run the sample code, perform the following steps:

1. Edit the JWS.java file using tools such as Notepad++. Locate the following lines and verify web services URL:
   
   // The endpoint for the R11 web service
   String endpoint = "http://localhost:8080/axis/services/USD_R11_WebService?wsdl";
   
   If you are compiling on a remote server, replace the servicedesk hostname with localhost.
   
   
2. Update the ServiceDesk password in the following lines:
   
   // Assume username and password are both "ServiceDesk"
   String username = "ServiceDesk";
   String password = "<password>";
   
   
3. Save the file. Copy the run_java_test_bat.txt file from NX_ROOT\samples\sdk\websvc\java to NX_ROOT\samples\sdk\websvc\java\test2_basic folder and rename to run_java_test.bat. Edit the file run_java_test.bat and locate and and comment the following line:
   
   @SET TEST_APP=USDWSUtil
   
   
4. Now uncomment the below:
   
   @SET TEST_APP=JWS
   
   
5. Verify the path in the statement below and change accordingly:
   
   @SET USD_SHORT_PATH=C:\PROGRA~2\CA\SERVIC~1
   
   Note: If SDM is on 32bit server, path is C:\PROGRA~1\CA\SERVIC~1. On 64bit server it is C:\PROGRA~2\CA\SERVIC~1
   
   
6. Make the changes to below JRE Path:
   
   @SET JAVA_PATH= C:\PROGRA~2\CA\SC\JRE\1.6.0_30
   
   
7. Save the run_java_test.bat file and run it from the below location:
   
   C:\PROGRA~2\CA\SERVIC~1\samples\sdk\websvc\java\test2_basic>
   
   You should see JWS.java file and com folder created in NX_ROOT\\samples\sdk\websvc\java\test2_basic.

Below is the expected output:

C:\PROGRA~1\CA\SERVIC~2\samples\sdk\websvc\java\test2_basic>run_java_test.bat
