Problem doing Ant Build of new Java Web Service.

Hi All,

I've created a new web service - fairly standard requirements - single service object with two methods and a single associated SDO. Have successfully done C# web services previously, but this time I need to deploy the services as java wars (and I do not have visual studio on my dev box) - to that end, I've removed the dotnet build and dotnet deploy elements from the build.xml. However, when I run ant, I get the following introductory errors (multiple additional errors, but assume these are related to the initial errors...

C:\CS10\webservices\sdk\templates>ant

Buildfile: C:\CS10\webservices\sdk\templates\build.xml

init:

clean:

[mkdir] Created dir: C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\build\dotnet

[mkdir] Created dir: C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\build\java

compile.java:

[mkdir] Created dir: C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\build\java\classes

[javac] C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\build.xml:99: warning: 'includeantruntime' was not set, defaulting to buil

d.sysclasspath=last; set to false for repeatable builds

[javac] Compiling 6 source files to C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\build\java\classes

[javac] C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\java_src\services\com\opentext\livelink\service\mymanagement\IMYManagement

.java:23: cannot find symbol

[javac] symbol : class MyManager

[javac] location: interface com.opentext.livelink.service.jvmanagement.IMyManagement

[javac] public MYManagement[] getMyManagerss();

[javac] ^

[javac] C:\OTCS\webservices\sdk\templates\java_src\services\com\opentext\livelink\service\jvmanagement\MYManagement.

java:30: cannot find symbol

Any ideas as to what is missing here?

Many thanks

Just further on this - I generated source for the standard classifications web service and get the same pattern of errors, so don't think it is an Oscript issue - must be to do with the set-up of ant/build files.

Thanks

HI Iain,

Have you taken a look at the new CWS documentation for 10.5? The section explaining how to create a new service should be helpful here. You can ignore the OScript side of things as it sounds like you have that part under control - and the OScript side of things differs quite a lot in 10.5.

Here is a quick link to the new CWS documentation:

Also, you will want to note that the sample build.xml provided builds upon an initial .NET version of the service to create the Java version. So you would likely need to make some significant changes to the template build.xml provided to build a Java version of your service without a .NET version first.
