Re: [Soaplab-users] Getting Parameters Derived Service

[Nandita M. <nan...@ya...>]

hi there,

Thanks so much for the input, maybe there is no way to
do this but let me just ask in another way.

So currently I am using a derived web service say
http://industry.ebi.ac.uk/soap/soaplab/edit::seqret::derived.

So I get a list of All the set_<name> as well as all
get_<name> methods for this derived service by using 
getInputSpec() as recommended.

so i get something like:-

set_sequence_direct_data
set_osformat
set_snucleotide
set_sequence_usa
..
..
and so on.

And now I want to use the following doCall :-

 String sequence =">PPGLTG\n" +              
"ACTGCACTCACCGCACCTGGCCAATTTTTGTG....

 client.doCall ("set_sequence_direct_data", new
Object[] { jobId, sequence});
 client.doCall ("set_osformat", new Object[] { jobId,
"embl" });


So in the above I have the jobID, set_<name>.And I am
fine till here.

But is there a way know that set_osformat requires an
embl Value and set_sequence_direct_data requires a
sequence Value?

I wanted to indicate to the user that if he has
selected the set_osformat operation, he should input a
value for "embl".
OR if he has selected set_sequence_direct_data he has
to now input a value for "sequence".
Thus making it more intuitive for the user , if he has
selected a set_<name> operation in a derived web
service,I further give him a clue on what value needs
to be given as input in the selected set_<name>
operation.

So for eg. the user wishes to select set_sncuelotide
but is confused as to what kind of input value to give
the above set operation.Should he give set_snucelotide
a sequence ? or something else?

I hope the above question makes more sense. I am
basically trying to use webservices in Kepler via
soaplab and am running into this problem, of being
able to provide the user with expected input Values
Requirements for the set_<name> operations in a
derived service.

thank you,
nandita.
