 <title>Publishing Web services and business entities with the Web Services
 Explorer</title>
 </head>
 <body id="tuddiexp"><a name="tuddiexp"><!-- --></a>

 <h1 class="topictitle1">Publishing Web services and business entities</h1>
 <div><p>Through UDDI and WSIL, other applications can discover WSDL documents
 and bind with them to execute transactions or perform other business processes. </p>
 <div class="section"><p>UDDI enables the discovery of Web services by providing a distributed
 registry of businesses and their service descriptions, implemented in a common
 XML format.  In order for a service requestor to discover a service,
 a service provider must first publish a business entity and at least one business
 service, and service interface in a UDDI registry.  The Web Services
 Explorer is a Web application that supports the publication, discovery, and
 maintenance of business entities, business services, and service interfaces.</p>
 <p>WSIL
 enables the discovery of Web services by defining a distributed service discovery
 method that supplies references to service descriptions at the service provider's
 point-of-offering, by specifying how to inspect a Web site for available Web
 services.  The WSIL specification defines the locations on a Web site
 where you can look for Web service descriptions. Since WSIL focuses on
 distributed service discovery, the WSIL specification complements UDDI by
 facilitating the discovery of services that are available on Web sites
 that may not be listed yet in a UDDI registry. The Web Services Explorer allows
 you to generate and explore WSIL documents.</p>
 <p>The favorites page of the
 Web Services Explorer allows you to store the location of UDDI registries,
 business entities, Web services, service interfaces, as well as WSIL and WSDL
 documents.</p>
 <p>Use the Web Services Explorer to do any of the following
 tasks:</p>
 <ul><li> <a href="taddreg.html">Add a registry to the Web Services Explorer</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tbkmrk.html">Adding a registry, business entity, business
 service, service interface, WSIL, or WSDL service to Favorites</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tdiscov.html">Discover a Web service</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tpubent.html">Publish a business entity to a registry</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tpublish.html">Publish a business service to a registry</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tunpub.html">Remove a business entity, business service,
 or service interface from a registry</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tupdate.html">Update a business entity, business service,
 or service interface</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tbusproj.html">Manage referenced services</a> </li>
 <li> <a href="tassert.html">Manage publisher assertions</a> </li>
 </ul>
 <p>Prerequisites:</p>
 </div>
 <ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Before you can use the Web Services Explorer to perform any of
 these functions, you must  <a href="treg.html">register with a public registry</a> or <a href="../../org.eclipse.jst.ws.uddi.registry.doc.user/tasks/tuddiwiz.html"> configure a private registry</a>.  There are many different
 registries with which you can register.</span> </li>
 <li class="stepexpand"><span>Ensure that you are using a supported Web browser.</span> The
 following Web browsers and versions are supported:<ul><li>Internet Explorer: 6.0 and up</li>
 <li>Mozilla: 1.2.1 and up</li>
 </ul>
 </li>
 <li class="stepexpand"><span> <a href="tstrtexp.html">Launch the Web Services Explorer</a>.</span></li>
 </ol>
 <div class="section"><div class="p"><strong>Known limitations of the Web Services Explorer:</strong><ul><li>The taxonomy categories in the Web Services Explorer are not translated
 since they must match those in the standards adhered to by UDDI (ISO, UNSPSC
 7.3, NAICS).</li>
 <li>The Web Services Explorer will launch without the browser toolbar which
 shows, amongst other things, the URL to the Web application. This URL should
 only be used by users with accessibility needs. The URL to the Web Services
 Explorer Web application can be obtained through the following steps:<ol><li>From the Window menu, select Preferences.</li>
 <li>In the Preferences dialog, select <span class="uicontrol">Web Browser</span> in
 the left pane.</li>
 <li>On the right, select <span class="uicontrol">Use external Web Browser</span>.</li>
 <li>In the <span class="uicontrol">Location: text</span> field, browse or type in
 the full path of the Internet Explorer executable. (for example, C:\Program
 Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe).</li>
 <li>Click <span class="uicontrol">Apply</span> followed by <span class="uicontrol">OK</span>.</li>
 </ol>
  Note that this preference will now apply to any browser windows that
 are launched by the user or by the tools themselves (such as the Universal
 Test Client).  The Web Services Explorer will now launch in an external browser
 and its URL should be in the Address field. This can then be pasted or opened
 using am accessibility assisting browser such as IBM<sup>®</sup> Home Page Reader.</li>
 <li>When performing an advanced find or publish in the UDDI page of the Web
 Services Explorer, the items in the drop down list for picking a language
 in conjunction with a name or description is sorted  according to the operating
 system's locale settings. On Windows<sup>®</sup>, this order may be managed through
 the Control Panel. To do this:<ol><li>Open the Control Panel.</li>
 <li>Launch the Regional Options control panel applet.</li>
 <li>In the General tab of the resulting dialog, there may be a "Sorting order"
 drop-down list. If so, pick a sorting order and then click <span class="uicontrol">Apply</span> followed
 by <span class="uicontrol">OK</span>.</li>
 <li>In the Web Services Explorer, the new sorting order comes into effect
 once the page reloads. This can be accomplished by pressing the back arrow
 followed by the forward arrow in the main toolbar.</li>
 </ol>
 Note: The instructions above apply to Windows 2000. On Windows XP,
 the tab mentioned in step 3 is called "Regional Options". Beside the language
 drop-down, there is a <span class="uicontrol">Customize</span> button. When this is
 clicked, a new dialog appears. A sorting tab will allow users to pick the
 sorting method if applicable.</li>

 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tstrtexp.html">Launching the Web Services Explorer</a></strong><br />
 The Web services tools allows you to launch the Web Services Explorer
 in several ways.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/treg.html">Registering with a UDDI registry</a></strong><br />
 In order to publish your business entity and Web service to a UDDI
 registry, you must first register with the registry that you want to use.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/taddreg.html">Adding a Registry to the IBM Web Services Explorer</a></strong><br />
 Although the Web Services Explorer comes populated with several
 registries, you can also add additional registries to your list of favorites.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tpubent.html">Publishing a business entity</a></strong><br />
 A business entity contains information about the business that
 has published a service.  Before you can publish a business service,
 you must publish a business entity.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tpublish.html">Publishing a Web service</a></strong><br />
 The Web service, also known as the business service, describes
 a Web service's endpoint and where its WSDL file resides. The WSDL file lists
 the operations that service provides.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tupdate.html">Updating a business entity, Web service, or service interface</a></strong><br />
 After you have published a business entity, Web service, or service
 interface, you can update it through the Web Services Explorer.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tunpub.html">Removing a business entity, Web service, or service interface from a registry</a></strong><br />
 After you have published a business entity, Web service, or service

 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tbusproj.html">Managing referenced services</a></strong><br />
 A service projection enables a business entity to reference a service
 that was published by another business entity. By using the businessService
 structure as a projection to an already published businessService, businesses
 can share or reuse services.  Service projections are managed centrally
 as part of the referencing businessEntity.</li>
 <li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="../tasks/tassert.html">Managing publisher assertions</a></strong><br />
 A publisher assertion is a way in UDDI to associate businessEntity
 structures.  The publisher assertion defines a group of businessEntity
 structures. Many businesses are not effectively represented by a single businessEntity.
 A publisher assertion allows for associations to be formed between several
 businessEntity structures. For example, a large company may have several subsidiaries
 that have different descriptions but are still closely coupled and want to
 make their relationships visible in UDDI registries.</li>

 Web Services Inspection Language (WSIL) is a service discovery
 mechanism that is an alternative to UDDI as well as complementary to UDDI.
 WSIL can be generated at any point in the Web service development cycle once
 the WSDL file for the Web service has been created.</li>
