CA Gen Interim Enhancement 1 › Web Service Consumption

Web Service Consumption

CA Gen provides the facility to consume SOAP Web Services using the Call External statement in an action diagram. The Web Service Consumption feature in Interim Enhancement 1 targets C applications.

To use the new Web Service Consumption functionality with the existing 9.2.A6 models, the encyclopedia schema tables must be updated and the models run through model conversion as follows:

• For the Host Encyclopedia, reload the schema tables by running CEJOB05 (or CAJOB05) again after applying and deploying Interim Enhancement 1.
• Run model conversion on existing models to add the objects that are used by Web Service Consumption to those models, if you want to use the CALL EXTERNAL Web Service statement in action diagrams.

SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 are currently supported.

Documentation Impact:

The following documentation deliverables were updated for this feature:

• A scenario document has been created that demonstrates the process of calling external web services.
• The Toolset Help was updated.
