Windows Web Services API : Step->By-Step per il client

Il metodo più semplice per provare la nuova libreria WWSAPI è quella di partire da uno scenario WWSAPI client che si integra con un servizio WCF. Passo successivo creeremo lo stesso servizio in C/C++ con WWSAPI e vedremo che lato client ci basterà cambiare l’url del Web Service permettendoci di invocare indistintamente quello sviluppato in WCF e in WWSAPI.

Per crearsi l’ambiente dovremo scaricare il seguente software :

Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 : BETA

Beta of Windows Web Services API for Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003 and Server 2008 (solo se non si sviluppa su WIndows 7 o Windows Server 2008 R2)

 

Web Service in WCF

Come prima cosa costruiamoci un servizio WCF (tipo di progetto VS2008 : WCF Service Application) che implementa una semplice interfaccia (ovviamente lo si può provare anche con un ASMX) :

 

namespace CalculatorService
{
[ServiceContract(Namespace = "
https://MarioFontanaPublicDemos.com/CalculatorService/")]
    public interface ICalculator
{

        [OperationContract]
long Add(int a, int b);

    }
}

 

Assicurandoci di impostare il binding su basicHttpBindings. Dovremo avere un web.config simile a questo:

<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service behaviorConfiguration="CalculatorService.CalculatorServiceBehavior" name="CalculatorServiceServiceConfiguration">
<endpoint address="" bindingNamespace="
https://MarioFontanaPublicDemos.com/CalculatorService/Bindings" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="" contract="CalculatorService.ICalculator">
<identity>
<dns value="localhost"/>
</identity>
</endpoint>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="CalculatorService.CalculatorServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>

 

A questo punto il nostro servizio dovrebbe avere un WSDL di questo tipo :

Prima di abbandonare il nostro servizio ricordiamoci di rendere fissa la porta su localhost. Nel caso di esempio : 62881 (quindi avremo : l’endpoint su : https://localhost:62881/CalculatorService.svc)

Client C/C++

Per creare il client C/C++ che consuma il nostro servizio WCF dobbiamo fare i seguenti passi :

  1. Ottenere i metadati dal Web Service tramite l’utility svcutil.exe (Microsoft Service Model Metadata Tool)
  2. Trasformare i metadati in dichiarazioni C tramite una seconda utility a riga di comando : wsutil.exe (Windows Web Services Tool) Attenzione : controllate che sia la versione 1.0079. in alcuni casi ho riscontrato che la versione 1.0069 che non funziona !!!
  3. Step succesivo scrivere il codice client.

 

Vediamo passo passo come fare : 

  1. Creiamo un nuovo progetto di tipo Win32 Console Application (può andare anche un qualsiasi progetto con interfaccia grafica, ma sapete io sono un nostalgico della cara vecchia console :-) e premiamo pure su finish perchè non ci interessa nessuna customizzazione.

  2. Andiamo nella configurazione del progetto e selezioniamo All Configuration in alto a sinistra nella finestra di Property Page.

    1. Selezioniamo Configuration Properties->C/C++ –> Precompiled Headers e alla voce Create/Use Precompiled Header impostiamo : Not Using Precompiled Headers.
    2. Selezioniamo Configuration Properties->Linker->Input e alla voce Additional Dependencies scriviamo WebServices.lib.
  3. Premiamo OK alla finestra di configurazione.

  4. Apriamo una console amministrativa e andiamo nella directory del nostro client. Qui possiamo creare una directory ad esempio : WSMetadata.

  5. Entriamo nella directory WSMetadata e lanciamo la nuova versione dell’utility a riga di comando svcutil.exe /t:metadata <indirizzo del nostro servizio WCF> quindi sarà ad esempio :

    svcutil.exe /t:metadata https://localhost:62881/CalculatorService.svc.

    In questo modo abbiamo scaricato i metadati dal servizio, ovvero il WSDL e gli xsd, e dovremmo avere un file WSDL e uno o più file XSD. Nel nostro caso avremo

    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.Bindings.wsdl
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.wsdl
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.xsd
    schemas.microsoft.com.2003.10.Serialization.xsd

  6. A questo punto lanciamo un’altra utility a riga di comando wsutil.exe *.* (assicurarsi che non ci siano altri file oltre quelli creati nel punto precedente perchè altrimenti viene ovviamente generato un errore). Con questa operazione abbiamo creato per ogni file presente nella directory un equivalente .c e .h con la descrizione dello schema, del wsdl e delle policy che andermo ad includere nel nostro progetto. Nel nostro caso avremo quindi 12 files :

    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.Bindings.wsdl
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.Bindings.wsdl.c
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.Bindings.wsdl.h
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.wsdl
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.wsdl.c
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.wsdl.h
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.xsd
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.xsd.c
    mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.xsd.h
    schemas.microsoft.com.2003.10.Serialization.xsd
    schemas.microsoft.com.2003.10.Serialization.xsd.c
    schemas.microsoft.com.2003.10.Serialization.xsd.h

  7. Aggiungiamo al progetto i files .h e .c appena creati nella directory WSMetadata.

  8. Aggiungiamo l’include ai file .h inseriti nel progetto e a <webservices.h> :

    #include <webservices.h>
    #include "..\\wsmetadata\\mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.Bindings.wsdl.h"
    #include "..\\wsmetadata\\mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.wsdl.h"
    #include "..\\wsmetadata\\mariofontanapublicdemos.com.CalculatorService.xsd.h"
    #include "..\\wsmetadata\\schemas.microsoft.com.2003.10.Serialization.xsd.h"

  9. Primo momento della verità : compilatina…e dovrebbe andare tutto OK

  10. Copiamo il codice riportato sotto e poi possiamo compilare nuovamente fiduciosi :-)

Lanciando prima il Web Service in WCF e poi il nostro clientino dovremmo avere la fatidica risposta della somma !!

Nel prossimo post creeremo lo stesso servizio con le Windows Web Services API per dimostrare la completa interoperabilità tra WCF e WWSAPI.
