I bought MyEclipse Blue to evaluate for EAI use. I am in a large government agency with lots of legacy applications on a wide range of technologies. Very few COTS such as the large ERP vendors. I am looking for a number of “adapters” in the blue version that I can use to integrate with the legacy apps. The adapters ideally expose the legacy data as Web Services or Service Data Objects (SDO). The legacy app interfaces are 3GL languages sending data over the wire in standard protocols. I need a means to buy or build these adapters. Standard protocols include: ASCII, EDCIDIC, sockets, FTP, fixed-format data and flat files. What is provided in the blue version which approaches my requirement?

thanks

wsweet,

I have escalated your query to a dev team member. They will get back to you.

wsweet,

Blue will allow you to build web services, though these tools will build web services from a WSDL file or existing Java classes.

We do not have any tools that would actually connect / generate a web service from a flat file for instance – the actual implementation that would, say, fetch data from a flat file when it is requested through the web service would be up to you; you would need to implement that from scratch.

Please let me know if you have further questions or I can assist further.
