XML-RPC example current time

Created: 2011-08-11 11:43:55      Last updated: 2011-08-11 11:43:56

Using Apache ws-xmlrpc from Beanshell scripts to call time.xmlrpc.com - see http://www.xmlrpc.com/currentTime

To use, download the JARs from http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/download.html (ie. http://apache.mirror.anlx.net//ws/xmlrpc/apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.zip ) - unzip and put into Taverna's home directory lib/ folder. Right-click on the Beanshell script and check the "Dependencies" tab to check that all JARs have been ticked off (minimum required: ws-common-util.jar, xmlrpc-client.jar and xmlrpc-common.jar.

For changing which XML RPC method to use, edit the beanshell script, supplying extra input or output ports as needed. See http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/client.html for documentation on the ws-xmlrpc API.

Note as Taverna's Beanshell script can only return 'simple' types like strings and integers, you might ave to use toString() metods for the beanshell output ports.
