Feedback and comments regarding the consuming web services from Lotus Domin

Last summer I wrote the article “Consuming a web service from ” and it was published at DeveloperWorks, you can find the post about it here.I have received got loads of feedback and comments after the article was posted, and there’s especially two things that I want to share with you. First is a strange memory leakage or at least something that makes the java dirty laundry heap flood. After some tryouts my mail writer found that if he bundled the JAR files within an agent, as in a Java Library the memory problem was there. But if he added them to the /ext/ library in the domino installation path everything worked out nice. Just good to know.Another question was how to authenticate the web service callee to the server. The answer to that was simple enough and I thank my reader for sharing it with me:

service._setProperty (lotus.domino.axis.client.Call.USERNAME_PROPERTY, “YourName”);
service._setProperty (lotus.domino.axis.client.Call.PASSWORD_PROPERTY, “YourPassword”);

There are a few other things as well, but I will post about them later on.

Does it work only with Basic authentication or with Session authentication too?

“I have got loads of feedback…”

Please change that to “I have received loads of feedback…”

You’re way too smart to be represented that kind of poor grammar. Please delete this comment when done. I promise I won’t tell anyone.

I don’t mind being corrected on my English. I have a lot to learn and will welcome your help. A warning is appropriate though: I’m considerably more focused on the technical pieces than the grammar ones, especially since English is not my first language.
