Editing an EGL Web service definition file

For details on the uses of a Web service definition file, see EGL Web service.

To edit such a file, do as follows:

  1. In the Project Navigator view, right-click on the file name.
  2. In the context menu, click Open With > EGL Web Services Part Editor.
  3. A Web Service Operations grid is displayed, with each row relating an operation name to an EGL program.
  4. If you want to delete a row, click into that row and click Remove.
  5. If you want to add a row, take these steps--
    1. Click Add.
    2. In the second column of the active row, type the path of an EGL program file or click the down arrow to select an entry from a drop-down list; in either case, the path is relative to the workspace.
    3. To accept the program name as the operation name, do nothing more in the active row; otherwise, type the operation name in the first column of the active row.

      You are required to specify an operation name explicitly if the program name is invalid as an operation name; for details, see Naming conventions.

  6. To save the file, press Ctrl-S.
