NonStop SOAP 4.1 User's Manual
ServerAddress = “http://www.nonstopsoap.com”
Generated WSDL file:
<soap:address location="http://www.nonstopsoap.com/<url_pattern>/
services/<service_name>"/>
The Url attribute
The optional Url attribute specifies the Web address of the NonStop SOAP 4 deployment location.
The value of this attribute is the <url_pattern> or the Filemap value specified in the
itp_axis2.config file. The default value of this attribute is nssoap.
For example:
SDL file:
Url = “/nssoap”
Generated HTML file:
ACTION =/nssoap/services/<service_name>
Generated WSDL file:
<soap:address location="http://<ip address>:<port>/
nssoap/services/<service_name>"/>
SDL Service Types
The child element of the sdl element describes the service type. NonStop SOAP 4 supports the
following service types:
• “The Pathway Element” (page 154)
• “The Process Element” (page 174)
• “The ServerAPI Element” (page 176)
The SoapAdminCL tool, when run with the import option, checks the name of the child element
of the sdl element and generates the HTML files, WSDL files, XML schema files, SOAP request
and response XML files, and the services.xml file.
The Pathway Element
The Pathway element indicates that the service is a Pathway application. The SDL file uses the
Pathway element to define services in multiple Pathway environments. The Pathway element
definition appears in the SDL file as:
<Pathway>
The Pathway element has a child element named PathwayEnvironment.
The PathwayEnvironment Element
The PathwayEnvironment element specifies the Pathway environment of the target service. This
element is mandatory for the Pathway application. The element definition appears in the SDL file
as follows:
<PathwayEnvironment PathmonName="$<PATHMON Name>">
The PathwayEnvironment element includes the PathmonName attribute.
The PathmonName attribute
The PathmonName attribute specifies the name of the PATHMON under which the target service is
running as a serverclass. The value of this element is stored in the services.xml file. The
NonStop SOAP 4 server uses this attribute value during runtime.
For example:
SDL file:
