RE: Beagle XML/Unix API & Java

Hi All,

I have captured the XML message when using the Beagle Web. From this XML, I=
 tried to write an XML Schema. The XSD file is attached, what do you think =
about this schema ? Is it well written ?
Then, I used Jaxb to generate the Java Binding Classes (ResponseWrapper.jav=
a).

In SearchManager.java, it's a sample to use the API with Java.

There's no documentation for it, sadly.  Generally apps should use either t=
he C# classes or one of the C-based language bindings.  If you're looking t=
o implement a client library yourself, building it on top of the C one is t=
he easiest as it is an easily-bindable GObject-based API.

If you can't go one of these routes for whatever reason, your best bet is t=
o look at the C code itself.  It's fairly simply broken into request and re=
sponse classes, and I think the XML generation in it is pretty clean:

The socat tool might also be helpful to you, as you can wedge yourself in a=
s a man-in-the-middle and watch the traffic going by.
