(I know it's not a BioJava problem but NCBI don't support Java and I
know there's a few SOAP gurus here!!)
Last week, I requested NCBI fix their eutils .wsdl and .xsd so they work
correctly with Axis' wsdl2java utility to convert the WSDL to Java code.
Got an email back on Wednesday saying all done. (I've been getting great
service from NCBI!!!)
Now the src stubs are created correctly and they compile fine but I have
been unable to work out exactly how to get a result set back.
(there is even less documentation for this than BioJava has )
This is what I'm trying:
// Make a service
EUtilsService service = new EUtilsServiceLocator();
// Now use the service to get a stub to the Service Definition
Interface (SDI)
EUtilsServiceSoap ncbiSOAP = service.geteUtilsServiceSoap();
//database name
String db = "pubmed";
//Search term
String term = "cancer";
//Requests utility to maintain results in user's environment.
Used in conjunction with WebEnv
String usehistory = "";
//Value previously returned in XML results from ESearch or
EPost.
//This value may change with each utility call.
//If WebEnv is used, History search numbers can be included in
an ESummary URL,
//e.g., term=cancer+AND+%23X (where %23 replaces # and X is the
History search number).
String webEnv = "";
//The value used for a history search number or previously
returned in
//XML results from ESearch or EPost.
String query_key = "";
//identifies the resource which is using Entrez links (e.g.,
tool=flybase).
String tool = "";
String email = "";
//Use this command to specify a specific search field.
String field = "";
//Limit items a number of days immediately preceding today's
date
int reldate = 60;
//Limit results bounded by two specific dates.
//Both mindate and maxdate are required if date range limits are
applied using these variables
String mindate = "";
String maxdate = "";
//Limit dates to a specific date field based on database
String datetype = "edat";
//sequential number of the first record retrieved
//default=0 which will retrieve the first record)
int retstart = 0;
//number of items retrieved
int retmax = 100;
String rettype = "";
//Use in conjunction with Web Environment to display sorted
results in ESummary and EFetch
String sort = "";
// fill in values
ESearchResult esr = ncbiSOAP.run_eSearch(db, term, usehistory,
webEnv,
query_key, tool, email,
field,
reldate, mindate, maxdate,
datetype, retstart, retmax,
rettype, sort);
where do I go from here?
Does anyone have any example code ?
thanx
