You can programmatically remove an application by using
the Java and web service API. Because all applications are visible
to others who use the LiveCycle server, you should exercise caution
before you remove an application.
Note: The name of the service that is invoked when
removing an application is ApplicationManager. Therefore, to create
a proxy object that lets you invoke its operations by using a web
service, specify the following WSDL definition: http://localhost:8080/soap/services/ApplicationManager?WSDL.
(See Invoking LiveCycle using Web Services.)
Summary of stepsTo remove an application, perform the following tasks:
Include project files.
Create an ApplicationManager Client API object.
Locate the application to remove.
Remove the application.
Include project filesInclude the necessary files into your development
project. If you are creating a client application by using Java,
include the necessary JAR files. If you are using web services,
make sure you include the proxy files.
Create an ApplicationManager Client API object.To remove an
application, create an ApplicationManager object.
Locate the application to removeObtain the identifier of the
application to remove. If you do not know the identifier value,
you can retrieve all applications and search by name. Using the application
name, you can obtain the identifier value that corresponds to the application
you want to remove.
Remove the applicationYou can remove an application by using
its identifier value.
Remove an application using the Java APIRemove a LiveCycle application by using the Application
Manager API (Java):
Include project files
Include client JAR files,
such as adobe-livecycle-client.jar, in your Java project’s class
path.
Create an ApplicationManager Client API object.
Create a ServiceClientFactory object that
contains connection properties. (See Setting connection properties.)
Create an ApplicationManager object by invoking
its constructor and passing the ServiceClientFactory object
that contains connection properties.
Locate the application to remove
Retrieve
all applications by invoking the ApplicationManager object’s getApplications method.
This method returns a java.util.List object where
each element is an Application object.
Iterate through the list by casting each element to an Application object.
Create an ApplicationId object by invoking
the Application object’s getApplicationId method.
Get the application name by invoking the ApplicationId object’s getApplicationName method.
This method returns a string value that specifies the application
name. If the application name corresponds to the application that
you want to remove, you can use the ApplicationId object
to remove the application.
Remove the application
After you locate the application
to remove, invoke the ApplicationManager object’s removeApplication method
and pass the ApplicationId object that represents
the application to remove.
Remove an application using the web service APIRemove a LiveCycle application by using the Application
Manager API (web service):
Include project files
Create an ApplicationManager Client API object.
Using the Microsoft .NET client assembly, create an ApplicationManagerService object
by invoking its default constructor.
Set the ApplicationManagerService object’s Credentials data member
with a System.Net.NetworkCredential value that specifies
the user name and password value.
Locate the application to remove
Retrieve
all applications by invoking the ApplicationManagerService object’s getApplications method.
This method returns an array of Objects where each
element is a Application object that represents
an application.
Iterate through the array by casting each element to an Application object.
Create an ApplicationId object by getting
the value of the Application object’s applicationId data
member.
Get the application name by getting the value of the ApplicationId object’s applicationName data
member. If the application name corresponds to the application that
you want to remove, you can use the ApplicationId object
to remove the application.
Remove the application
After you locate the application
to remove, invoke the ApplicationManager object’s removeApplication method
and pass the ApplicationId object that represents
the application to remove.
