Education Lesson 1
Goal of this Lesson
This is one of three documents, which serves as a self learning program for developing a Web service with the Bridge. The education leads you through a development process divided into three lessons, which will teach you to build services based on the Bridge platform.
By working through Education Lesson 1, you will learn
how to install the software and tools on your system, which are necessary to develop, test, and run a simple Web service
how to handle Scheer PAS Builder for MagicDraw and the xUML Embedded Runtime
how to draw a UML model with MagicDraw
how to compile and deploy your own xUML service with the xUML Model Compiler
how to test and debug your own Web service with the xUML Interactive Debugger
how to manage service composites on the Bridge
You will practice tool relevant tasks throughout the course. This document references further explanations in additional documents (see also Documentation Map below).
Preconditions
Knowledge in UML modeling, Web services, object-oriented design, or scripting languages is not required, but may be helpful for some more complex implementations. The degree of difficulty increases from lesson 1 to 3.
Documentation Map
The Bridge is delivered with comprehensive documentation. Apart from this self-study, the Bridge also comes with many examples you can have a look at. Each feature is subject of an example that is ready to run.
This chapter provides an overview about all documentation available after installation. How to access the xUML examples is explained on Unzipping the Builder Examples.
The complete documentation is available online.
