Education Lesson 2

Goal of this Lesson

This document 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.

Welcome to lesson 2 of the education.

The goal of Lesson 2 is to create a Web service that receives data. The Web service processes the data and returns it back.

By working through this document, you will learn

  • how to create classes and associations

  • how to use objects and pins

  • how to use operations and functions in Action Scripts

  • how to define call operation actions how to perform simple mappings

  • how to test and debug your own Web service with the xUML Interactive Debugger and the Scheer PAS Aanalyzer

You will practice tool relevant tasks throughout the course. This document references further explanations in additional documents (see also Documentation Map below).

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.
