How to support Web Server-less API?

[Heo_Ju-Young]

I read the InfoLetter of Tamino4.1 Presskit, which said WebS is supported.
I don’t know how supported by Tamino.
Where can I get more info about Web server-less API supported features?
Thank you for your help!

Hello there,

here is the “Usage” section from the Tamino API for Java documentation of Tamino 4.1.1.1 - hopefully this contains the information you are looking for.

Usage
The distinction, whether the Tamino API for Java should access the Tamino XML Server via the web server or without the web server, is done using the protocol tag in the URL. Consequently, if a database can be accessed via http://localhost/tamino/mydb/, the use of a URL such as wsl:///tamino/mydb/ would access the same database without going through the web server. When opening a connection to a Tamino database using the webserverless mode via the call TConnectionFactory.getInstance().newConnection( DB_URI ), the variable DB_URI has to specify the protocol wsl instead of http, e.g. wsl:///tamino/mydb. Since all connections via WSL have to use the eXtended Transport Services (XTS) from Software AG, the hostname and the portnumber are left blank in the URL and the database is accessed through its unique database name, as in the above example mydb. This is the only change required when the webserverless mode is to be used, i.e. to replace the protocol in all DB_URIs by wsl and leave out the hostname and the portnumber.

In order to use the correct XTS server, which knows about the desired database, one has to either set the environment variable XTSDSURL locally or adjust the entry in the file /etc/hosts. The latter is normally done automatically when the XTS package is installed. For further details about the XTS configuration please consults the corresponding documentation (Tamino XML Server > Installing Tamino > Configuring Tamino).

Greetings,
Trevor.

Some supplement information to Trevor’s mail:

The webserverless access to Tamino is supported in Tamino V4.1 only using the Tamino API for Java. In consequence all features, which are supported by this API are also available with the webserverless access. The documentation about the webserverless access can be found within the documentation of the Tamino API for Java.

Hello All,

does it mean that the .NET API doesn’t allow webserverless access? If so, is it planned soon?

Thanks,

Peter

It is not due in Tamino 4.2.
