VA 8.5 - WebServices, Headless IC packaging

I tried to expand my headless IC base to WebServices and RMI support, but the headless IC packager fails on the packaging rules in

SstWebServicesContainerApp class>>packagingRulesFor:

...
aPackagedImage initializeClassVariable: 'Containers' to: 'SstWSContainer newContainerCollection' inClassNamed: #SstWSContainer

on the other hand: why does one need this instead of doing the initialization by manual code in the #loaded method or (in case of this application) in the method #setupAfterLoad, which could be introduced here ...

Re: VA 8.5 - WebServices, Headless IC packaging

I am getting that also on 8.5.2, using web services for the first time in this headless image. Seems like the runtime image works fine though.

Creation of a packaging rule by SstWebServicesContainerApp class>>#packagingRulesFor: failed. The message used to create the rule was:

#initializeClassVariable:to:inClassNamed:

The arguments used were:

(1) 'Containers'

(2) 'SstWSContainer newContainerCollection'

(3) #SstWSContainer

Marten -

First, you don't need to package these ICs -- sstws.ic and sstrmi.ws are shipped with the product.

Second, you don't need to package them in XD, they package just fine in a development image.

Re: VA 8.5 - WebServices, Headless IC packaging

Perhaps I did a bad thing, posting my reply to this old posting of Marten's. I found it via a search. I'm not doing anything with ICs, but I am getting that same packaging error -

Packaging Rule Error: Expression does not compile.

plus the other details I mentioned above.

Wayne -

If you are packaging in XD, packaging rules involved in the operation cannot in general contain any message sends as part of the arguments. So argument (2) 'SstWSContainer newContainerCollection' is invalid. The Packager, and all the packaging rules,execute in the development environment, but the arguments to the packaging rules need to be relative to the content of the passive (XD) image and code cannot be executed in a passive image.

John:

I think you are saying those packaging rules are bad, I didn't create them. This is what I have as the only (117/2002) edition of SstWebServicesContainerApp class>>#packagingRulesFor: - a "V 6.0.0" version of the class, which loaded in my passive image:

packagingRulesFor: aPackagedImage

" Nearly all classes in this application can be created dynamically via an XML file. Therefore, do not reduce the contents of this

application "

aPackagedImage doNotReduceSubApplicationNamed: self symbol.

aPackagedImage initializeClassVariable: 'Containers' to: 'SstWSContainer newContainerCollection' inClassNamed: #SstWSContainer
