RE: Open Access - Json Template

Jon,
Before, I could not get nested arrays working with web services wizard. Now I got it working.
So now we are down to which way is the fastest and easiest to maintain. We have 50 API and add about 3 to 4 a month.

You kind of talked me out on using your open access :)

John,

My OA template is generic - there is really nothing web service specific that I could add.

I have published one example that consumes a web service - it uses Scott’s HTTPAPI under the covers to handle the web service interaction. That is also referenced in my OA session.

Consider for a moment that one way to supply a web service is via HTTP. In my session I showed how a handler can be written that (in my case) interfaces with CGIDEV2 to handle the web side. The same principal could be applied to web services.

You don’t say what kind of web services you intend to supply (REST vs SOAP for example) - don’t forget that the web services wizard can also be used to provide these services from conventional RPG programs.

Jon Paris,
I am working on a proof of concept to handle to move all our JSON Web service API's to the IBM I,
Do you have a template program for open access to handle JSON over Http? I took you class at the summit, But not see good example for handling Web service Traffic.
I will using Scotts JSON API's.
