UDDI registry client programming

The UDDI registry provides several application programming interfaces (APIs) which you can use to access the UDDI registry programmatically.

Procedure

  1. Learn about the standard aspects of the UDDI APIs using the following topics.
  2. Access the APIs programmatically in one of several different ways. The recommended client API is the UDDI Version 3 Client , which allows access to the UDDI Version 3 APIs from Java client code. Other client APIs are provided for compatibility with previous versions of the UDDI registry:
    • UDDI4J provides Java class libraries for accessing UDDI Version 1 and Version 2 APIs. These class libraries are both deprecated in this release, and replaced by the UDDI Version 3 Client for Java. See UDDI4J programming interface (Deprecated) for further details.
    • UDDI EJB Interface (Deprecated) provides an EJB interface to the UDDI Version 2 APIs. The UDDI EJB interface is deprecated in this release.

    Although the recommended programmatic access to the UDDI APIs is through the UDDI Version 3 Client for Java, it is also valid to use the UDDI APIs directly using SOAP. This can be done by constructing a properly-formed UDDI message within the body of a SOAP request, and sending it using HTTP POST to the appropriate SOAP endpoint for the UDDI service (see UDDI registry SOAP service end points . The response will be returned within the body of the HTTP reply.

    Support is also provided for the use of HTTP GET to return XML representations of UDDI entities: see HTTP GET services for UDDI registry data structures for details.
