Repository Service API Quick Starts

The following Quick Starts are available for the LiveCycle Repository service.

LiveCycle operations are organized into the following Quick Start categories:

• Java API (EJB) - Demonstrates using the LiveCycle strongly-typed API and the connection mode is set to EJB. (See Setting connection properties.)

• Java API (SOAP) - Uses the LiveCycle strongly-typed API and the connection mode is set to SOAP.

• Web service API (Base64) - Demonstrates using a .NET client proxy and Base64. (See Invoking LiveCycle using Base64 encoding.)

• Web service API (SwaRef) - Demonstrates using Java proxy classes and SwaRef. These Java proxy classes are separate from the LiveCycle strongly-typed API. (See Invoking LiveCycle using SwaRef.)

Applications/FormsApplication

Most LiveCycle repository service quick starts interact with a LiveCycle application named Applications/FormsApplication, as shown in the following illustration.

The folder FormsFolder is a location in the LiveCycle repository. You can, for example, programmatically add this folder to Applications/FormsApplication. (See Quick Start (EJB mode): Creating a folder using the Java API.)

The path to a resource located in the LiveCycle repository is:

Applications/Application-name/Application-version/Folder.../Filename

Note: You can browse the LiveCycle Repository by using a web browser. To browse the repository, enter the following URL into a web browser http://[server name]:[server port]/repository. You can verify quick start results by using a web browser. For example, if you add content to the LiveCycle Repository, you can see the content in a web browser.

Note: Applications/FormsApplication does not exist by default. To follow along with the quick starts, create this application by using Workbench. For information about creating a LiveCycle application using Workbench, see Getting started with process design.
