The core comes with a couple of interesting new features which I introduced in the previous posts: detyped contract browsing / endpoint invocation and request message preview. This post will hence show the nice additions that webgui has just got :-)
The request parameter panel is now a multi-tab panel:
in particular the "Options" tab allows setting:
- the username / password to be used for the actual invocation (might be different from the wsdl retrieval ones)
- an override value for the target endpoint address (which is useful for quickly testing different endpoints conforming to the same wsdl contract)
Moreover, it's possible to get a popup window showing a preview of the SOAP request message that would be created and sent for the currently provided request parameters (no message actually goes on the wire):
Finally, should the user be interested in having a look at the actual SOAP response message that has been received upon invocation, the "View message" button shows it in another popup window:
I believe the 1.0.1 additions should further expand the set of Wise GUI usage scenarios; you can download the latest version, have a try and feel free to provide feedback :-)
Further improvements are planned for next release, possibly including a major UI change for allowing user management, so stay tuned...
