Introduction
These programming guidelines can help you to develop your own application quite quickly.
In order to avoid critical programming
failures, PTV recommends that you read these instructions carefully.
General Programming Guidelines
Detailed information on how to connect to PTV xServer and developing
web services
A web service represents a communication technology applied in computer networks. It provides an interface described in a machine-processable format, for example WSDL. is explained in the following pages:
- Using xServer with C#.
- Using xServer with Java.
- Using xServer with JavaScript
The WSDL of the PTV
xServer supports SOAP version 1.2 to its full extent. Logically, the
client generator of your programming tools must be up to date in order to create correct client classes (using abstract classes,
enumerations, inherited objects, etc.)
In order to get familiar with the PTV xServer, please use the information as follows:
- Use the API Documentation for development purposes. All fields, values, keys, operations and more are described in detail to fulfill your requirements according to the programming guidelines.
- See the samples and have a look at the Javascript sources.
- Browse the Use Cases and try out the samples. Here you can directly edit the code!
- Read the Technical Concepts for detailed background information on several topics.
Additional Programming Guidelines
Some more important notes concerning installation, configuration and administration.
- How to install and configure the PTV xServer is described in section Installation and Configuration.
- Understanding the design of the PTV xServer which is documented in the System Architecture section.
- Use the tools in the administration section in order to administrate your PTV xServer.
