| 12 | The KWebS project aims at delivering the automatic layout of the KIELER project to users on a platform independent basis. The main component of the project is the //server//. It is based on an Eclipse Rich Client Application (RCA) and encapsulates the KIELER Infrastructure for Meta Layout ([[KIML>>doc:Infrastructure for Meta Layout (KIML)]]) in order to expose the layout over a network. To make the layout accessible for other platforms, the server hides the java nature of the layout behind a web service and supports a variety of //formats// for the representation of user models. The server provides access to the layout based on two architectures: | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | (% style="" %) | ||
| 15 | * the SOAP web service uses the reference implementation of the //Java API for XML - Web Services (JAX-WS)//, which is being maintained by the Metro project ([[jax-ws.java.net>>url:http://jax-ws.java.net/||style="text-decoration: none;" shape="rect" class="ext-link"]]), and provides the layout on a sessionless basis, and | ||
| 16 | * the jETI service gives its users more flexibility due to the session based nature of the //Java Electronic Tool Integration (jETI)// platform that is being developed and maintained at the technical university of Dortmund ([[jeti.cs.uni-dortmund.de>>url:http://jeti.cs.uni-dortmund.de/||style="text-decoration: none;" shape="rect" class="ext-link"]]). | ||

| 19 | Additionally, //clients// enable using the service-based layout inside the Eclipse modeling environment or other platforms. | ||

| 22 | The following subpages first take a look at the way the service-based layout is integrated into the KIELER environment and what we need in order to use it. After that it is shown how we can download and set up a layout server on our own, e.g. to provide layout inside a companies network. Then we get to know the API provided by KWebS, after which the integration of the service-based layout with KWebS into our own projects is discussed. The last section gives us a list of configuration options supported by the server of KWebS. | ||
