Hi Russell,
Maybe now it's a bit late to answer but, anyway, I've tested the NCBI web
services and they work ok. Here is how I run the Esearch service (you will
get a list of GI for the query given):
// Make a service
EUtilsServiceLocator service = new EUtilsServiceLocator();
// Now use the service to get access to operations
EUtilsServiceSoap utils = service.geteUtilsServiceSoap();
// Make the actual call
_eSearchRequest parameters = new _eSearchRequest();
parameters.setDb("pubmed");
parameters.setTerm("cancer");
parameters.setReldate(new Integer(60));
parameters.setDatetype("edat");
_eSearchResult res = utils.run_eSearch(parameters);
// prints the number of results
System.out.println("RESULTS: "+res.getRetMax());
// print the GIs
IdListType list = res.getIdList();
String[] ids = list.getId();
for(int i=0; i<ids.length; i++)
{
System.out.println(ids[i]);
}
Well, good luck with your searches!
Bruno
