FrontierLink B2B getting started - web-services

Has anyone of you already tried integrating with FrontierLink?
Found in their documentation
5.2 Building the FrontierLink Client
5.2.1 SOAP Client Environment
You must adhere to the following minimum requirements for SOAP clients in order to successfully integrate with FrontierLink:
XML 1.0
SOAP 1.1
HTTP 1.0 (1.1 preferred)
SSL based connection authenticated via X.509 Digital Certificates
WSDL1.1
A Web Services toolkit supporting WSDL 1.1 is recommended to aid your development.
In their documentation there is no sample on how to get started. I am really sorry for asking this question but what would be the code for connecting to FrontierLink? Thanks! Hoping for someone who can help :) Thank you once again!

May you please show us an example of the FrontierLink API? so that I may be able to help you further?
Just in a nutshell with what I understand when using SOAP api, you will have to call the APIs or links from your application(web/mobile) and in turn the API will return data in form of XML. you will then have to parse that data so that you may able to use that in your application.

ZAP PROXY : security testing for REST API

Any help here will be greately appreciated :)
Wanted to check if anyone has used ZAPProxy for performing the security testing on the RESTfull WebServices (API). I know this tool provides good out of the box features for doing security testing on WebSites but I'm not sure how effective it on on the WebServices. I know I can use SOAPUI but I have heard that is not comprehensive.
Please suggest !
I use it for making SQL-Injection attack tests.
Great tool!
Receive the manual browsing data of your intercepting proxy via REST Webservices, process the the data, resend malicious web request, evaluate response and if you're not sure in your program if the response is right display it in an eclipse RCP webbrowser.

OpenERP 7 webservices support for Java?

I've been doing a lot of research for the past few days but it seems I can't arrive with the right answers. And most of the resources are scarce.
Here are my questions, hope you could help me answer it. These questions are all related to Java. On how to access OpenERP 7 data.
Does OpenERP 7 supports RESTFUL and JSON-RPC for Java?
How can we update information and prices for products (in the POS module?)
How we can do a bulk export of all products and prices, without pulling the data one product at a time?
Thank you very much.

There are already available doc for Android app and android internally use Java So may be this can help you
OpenERP Mobile Framework Doc
Thanks
yes openerp support JSON-RPC
from here you can get information
http://doc.openerp.com/trunk/developers/web/rpc/
I've done a simple example using json-rpc on android with android-json-rpc api, to fetch partners through http and https (using self-signed certificate) : https://bitbucket.org/petrus-v/openerpconnection
I haven't found good documentation about openerp low-level json-rpc api, my way was to understand request done with openERP client using any good browser's debbuger.
Hope it's help
You can refer to the official doc website from here
you could always look at wrapper libs for xml-rpc like OERPLib and port them to java

Adding ws-security to SOAP axis 1.4 web service built with Eclipse?

I built a simple SOAP web service using Eclipse and axis 1.4. Everything is working well. I'd like to enhance it to:
1) require digital signatures with requests
2) validate those signatures
3) allow me to examine the cert used to sign the requests
Any guidance at all would be appreciated. I don't mind RTFM but I don't even know what manual to start with. Thanks in advance.
It appears I can integrate Axis with WSS4J to accomplish what I am after:
http://ws.apache.org/wss4j/axis.html
Will update on the integration ASAP...

Create SOAP message from WSDL using axiom

I'm a starting a project which consist in sending a request to a web-service (which is already available) and parsing the response. I have the WSDL and URL endpoints. Does anyone have a startup tutorial on how to build something from there?
I would like to use Axis2 + Axiom to send the service request and receive and process the response. I'm using eclipse as dev env. I've been search for a tut on how to do this but with no success.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
this might help you
creating a webservice client using eclipse
I don't know about Axiom, but SOAP UI is a terrific tool for testing web services in just the manner you describe.
I don't know if Eclipse has a plug-in for it. (They do for everything else.) IntelliJ supports it, so that's how I use it.
Well in conclusion, I did find two very useful links for the Apache axis2 project, got it working in no time!
