Boy, the semantics here are really tricky. The bulk of WDSC was not
System i development. Because it was built on top of RAD, it included
(but was not limited to <grin>): HTML editor, JSP editor, CSS editor,
JavaScript editor, web site designer, XML editor, web application test
environment, and on and on.
I just yesteday did JavaScript stuff in WSDCi - the HTML + Javascript
part seems very nice.
It's a matter of perspective, certainly, but it seems to me just a
little bit backward to once again segregate the green screen developer
from the rest of the development world. I understand the mathematics of
it, but I still liked when even a long-time RPG programmer could, if
they so desired, fire up a web services tutorial inside of WDSC just to
see what it did.
I tried today to create a web service calling a Hello World COBOL ILE
program, and after creating and deploying to a WebSphere 6.1 thing
inside my WSDCi it didn't work because apparently the URL in the WSDL
file was not bound to a servlet. Pity, because it looks so
deceptively simple to do.
I'd appreciate if people who have managed to make the web service wizard
create a functional web service would share what worked for them :)
