DEVELOPERS FORUM - Integrating Aras Innovator with a Java web application

shamer - Thursday, February 11, 2010 3:53 AM:

Hi Experts,

I am a J2EE Developer trying to integrate Aras Innovator to a java web application

I have installed Aras and published some webservices through Aras Webservice configurations.

I could create a webservice client using Axis2 in my java application and invoke the Aras webservice methods.

But response showing that I am not logged in or Acces denied.

Can you please spread some light on this?

Does anyone have some sample codes in java which deals with Aras webservices?

Thanks

Regards

Shamer,

I have some experience integrating a Java Web Service accessing the Aras Innovator through IOM.dll.

As you have probably discovered, Java is a technology that does comfortably integrate with the .Net world where the IOM.dll resides.

But you can make calls to the IOM.dll from java if you use Java Native Interface (jni) to make a call from java to a C++ lib.  Once you are in C++, you can make a call to a C# dll which can then make calls to IOM.dll.

I followed examples as shown here: www.codeproject.com/.../javacsharp.aspx

Drew,

Thanks for your reply.

I understand the scope of using JNI to call IOM.dll and perform the actions.

But are you sure that we cannot make a java client for the published WSDL in ARAS and work with that client in java application.

Shamer,

Your approach sounds viable. My web services were more complex than the published web services provided by Aras Innovator so I had to use the JNI approach.

Since I did not use the web services as published by Aras Innovator, I can't really say whether your approach would work. However, I would be surprised if it did not work.

hi

Anything to report on how your java-only approach worked?
