Content XML XML Syntax XML Core Technologies WebDAV XML Web Services

What is XML self-describing documents textual markup (tags) a simplified version of SGML more suitable for use on the Web

HTML provides rich facilities for display, it does not provide any standards-based way to manage data as data

XML provides a data standard that can encode the content, semantics, and schemata for a wide variety of cases

offers a universal way to describe and work with data

Benefits Of XML provides a universal ,powerful, flexible format for

expressing data data delivered to the desktop can be manipulated

locally Unicode a description of the structure of the data the data is now separate from the presentation XML offers a mechanism for adding meta-data or meta-

content to HTML enables wide array of business applications to be

implemented on the Internet

XML Syntax for describing your data <<bookbook name=“ name=“The Lord Of The RingsThe Lord Of The Rings" lowfat="" lowfat="J.R.R. TolkienJ.R.R. Tolkien"/>"/>

begin and end tags and attributes case-sensitive text-based (similar to HTML) white space considered well-formed if it contains

exactly one root element and all the child elements are nested properly within each other

XML Syntax store and transmit data an unlimited set of tags Strictly a Tree An example well-formed XML document

<?xml version="1.0"?><hamburgers>

<hamburger lowfat="dream on"> <name>CowBurger</name> <description>Greasy and

good.</description> <price>2.99</price> </hamburger>

</hamburgers>

XML Namespaces provide a context for your XML document

elements resolve elements to a particular

implementation semantic Price : Sale price or purchase price

<?xml version="1.0"?><hamburgers

xmlns:purchase="http://fastfood.org/franchise/prices" xmlns:sales="http://fastfood.org/customer/prices">

<hamburger lowfat="dream on"> <name>CowBurger</name> <description>Greasy and good.</description>

<purchase:price>0.99</price>

<sales:price>2.99</price> </hamburger>

</hamburgers>

WebDAV Web Distributed Authoring and

Versioning Communicating XML Data over the

Web an important communication

protocol for the Web as an extension to HTTP 1.1

useful in client/server architecture

WebDAV Protocol Problem

HTTP for static documents intended for viewing

“lost update” problem Three major major concerns of

collaborative authoring in WebDAV Overwrite Protection Resource Management Document Properties

The Format of WebDAV Requests set of methods that clients can use

to communicate with servers Options, Head, and Trace Get Put and Post Delete Mkcol PropFind and PropPatch Copy and Move Lock and Unlock

What XML Means to WebDAV HTTP communicate with headers WebDAV require a great deal of information to

be associated with both requests and responses

Because of its inherent extensibility, XML was chosen to describe how these instructions are communicated

A method of formatting instructions describing how data is to be handled.

A method of formatting complex responses from the server. A method of communicating customized information about the

collections and resources handled. A flexible vehicle for the data itself.

XML Web Services fundamental building blocks in the move to

distributed computing on the Internet communication and collaboration among people

and applications application integration

constructed using multiple XML Web services from various sources work together regardless of where they reside or how they were implemented

primary advantages allows programs written in different languages on different

platforms to communicate with each other in a standards-based way

XML Web Services many definitions :

XML Web Services expose useful functionality to Web users through a standard Web protocol, SOAP.

XML Web services provide a way to describe their interfaces in enough detail to allow a user to build a client application to talk to them, called a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) document

XML Web services are registered so that potential users can find them easily, with Universal Discovery Description and Integration (UDDI).

What Can I Do With XML Web Services

information sources that you could easily incorporate into applications

more powerful applications that use XML Web services as building blocks

SOAP communication protocol for XML Web

services defines the XML format for messages Remote Procedure Calls

SOAP message containing a callable function parameters to pass to the function, is sent from the

client server returns a message with the results of the

executed function define security for web services

Why Should I Use SOAP? implemented on many different

hardware and software can be used to link separate

systems RPC HTTTP

WSDL a WSDL file is an XML document that

describes a set of SOAP messages and how the messages are exchanged

based on the XML Schema defines where the service is available

and what communications protocol is used to talk to the service

WSDL Document Structure Abstract Definitions (define SOAP messages )

Types : Machine- and language-independent type definitions Messages : Contains function parameters or

documentdescripttions PortTypes : function signatures (operation name, input

parameters, output pameters

Concrete Descriptions Bindings : Specifies binding(s) of each operation Services : Specifies port address(es) of each binding, syntax for

calling methods

UDDI yellow pages of Web services

Search web service Read about it Get more information about service

to reach a significant market, you need UDDI

an XML file that describes a business and the services it offers

UDDI 3 parts of an entry in UDDI

white pages : describe the company offering the service

yellow pages : include industrial categories

green pages : describe the interface to the service

UDDI directory includes several ways to search for the services

What XML Do You Post? SOAP Envelope

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<Envelope<Envelope xmlns='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'xmlns='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'>>

</find_business></find_business>

How Do You Post the XML? Form a Jscript file or HTML page by

XMLHTTP http = new http = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); http.open("POST", url, false); http.open("POST", url, false); http.setRequestHeader("Accept","text/xmhttp.setRequestHeader("Accept","text/xml"); http.setRequestHeader("Cache-l"); http.setRequestHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache"); Control","no-cache"); http.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction",'""'http.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction",'""'); http.send(msg);); http.send(msg);

Reliable XML Web Services Standards Based Acknowledged Delivery Ordered Delivery Symmetric Conversations Promotes Asynchronous

Processing

Synchronous Messaging The connection may be broken by an

external source, dropping either the request or response

The server may timeout because it is offline or overloaded

The server process may be dependant upon down stream services that have uncontrollable response times.
