XF Web Service (XFWS) |
|
The XF Web Service is available for download from www.ecrion.com and provides a SOAP interface for the functionality provided by XF Rendering Server.
Installation
Download UWSSetup.msi from the Product Downloads section of the website and double click to install it.
You might encounter problems installing the Web Service if the following prerequisites are not installed:
| • | .NET Framework 2.0 |
| • | Internet Information Services (IIS) - Very Important! On some operating systems the installer will abort without IIS; on others it will provide a link to the IIS download page |
| • | If running IIS 7.0 (Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008) you will also need to install "IIS Metabase and IIS6 Configuration Compatibility". On Windows Vista you can install this from Control Panel\Programs\Turn Windows features on and off. |
Accessing the Web Service
We will assume you have installed both UWS and IIS on the local machine and that you can access IIS using http://localhost.
With these settings, you can access UWS at: http://localhost/UWS
To render a file, you can also use the UWSRender tool included in the setup:
UWSRender.exe -in inFile -url http://localhost/UWS/Ultrascale.asmx?op=Render -out outFile
WSDL Reference
The syntax of the WSDL file is described by accessing http://localhost/UWS/Ultrascale.asmx?WSDL
For several input examples see also the WSDL Reference section of this manual.
