<title>Abstract</title>
<para>In complex IT environments it is necessary to integrate
different information systems with each other, exchange data
between
tools and automate actions and function calls depending
on events
arising from user interaction. To meet the requirements
of
integration building usually means to implement APIs and to
create
tool-to-tool bridges. Web Services can help to clean up
bridges into
interfaces as well as to abstract functions from
their underlying
platform and implementation.</para>
<para>These are the major goals of the loosely coupled
integration
strategy which is in turn one essential idea of a
service-oriented
architecture (SOA).</para>
<para>provide a low level set of functions and web services.
These can
be orchestrated into services and used in business
processes which
make up the execution part of a SOA
environment.</para>
<para>is an add-on to XBridgeNG 2.0. It runs standalone or in
combination with XBridgeNG. Pure XBridgeNG has two
components:</para>
<para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>XML Schema for item based data types (e.g. tickets
from a bug
tracker system or a database record)</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Set of Apache Ant tasks to function as a bridge
between the
XBridgeNG XML format at legacy 3rd party
software (e.g. HP Quality
Center, Serena TeamTrack,
...)</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The add Web Services (SOAP) wrapper around Apache Ant
tasks
(since XBridgeNG 2.0)</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>The current focus is on file-based operations. do not
contain an
integration server or a process execution
engine.</para>

<title>Limit access to</title>
<para>Sometimes you'll only want to restrict access to to
only
specified host names or IP addresses. This way, only
clients at
those specified addresses can use the web services.
Tomcat provides
two configuration values for that:
RemoteHostValve and
RemoteAddrValve.</para>
<para>These Valves allow you to filter requests by host name or
by IP
address, and to allow or deny hosts that match. The
example below
restricts access to the ArchiveService from any
machine that is not
the local host.</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;Context
path="/XService/ArchiveService"
...&gt; &lt;Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
allow="127.0.0.1" deny=""/&gt; &lt;/Context&gt;
</programlisting>
<para>If no allow pattern is given, then patterns that match
the deny
attribute patterns will be rejected, and all others
will be allowed.
Similarly, if no deny pattern is given,
patterns that match the
allow attribute will be allowed, and
all others will be denied.
</para>

These patterns look exactly like those used in Apache Ant
<ulink url="http://ant.apache.org/manual/dirtasks.html#patterns">Patterns</ulink>.
The '*' matches zero or more characters and the
'?' will match a single character.
Both symbols can be combined in one pattern. The '**'
symbol can be used to match any directory deepth.
</para>
<para>Some example patterns:</para>
<para>
<parameter>**/mydir/**</parameter>
</para>
<para>Match all file that are located in any directory that has
"mydir" string in its pathname. Also applies to files with
"mydir" in their name.</para>
<para>
<parameter>/mydir/</parameter>
</para>
<para>The
parser will automatically append an '**' symbol, thus the
resulting pattern is
<parameter>/mydir/**</parameter>.
All files below the "/mydir/" directory (including its
sub-directories will be chosen.
</para>
<note>
<para>The pattern is OS independent. You should always use
"/" as path separator, even on windows based systems.

<title>Abstract</title>
<para>In complex IT environments it is necessary to integrate
different information systems with each other, exchange data
between tools and automate actions and function calls depending
on events arising from user interaction. To meet the requirements
of integration building usually means to implement APIs and to
create tool-to-tool bridges. Web Services can help to clean up
bridges into interfaces as well as to abstract functions from
their underlying platform and implementation.</para>
<para>These are the major goals of the loosely coupled
integration strategy which is in turn one essential idea of a
service-oriented architecture (SOA).</para>
<para>provide a low level set of functions and web services.
These can be orchestrated into services and used in business
processes which make up the execution part of a SOA
environment.</para>
<para>is an add-on to XBridgeNG 2.0. It runs standalone or in
combination with XBridgeNG. Pure XBridgeNG has two
components:</para>

<para>XML Schema for item based data types (e.g. tickets
from a bug tracker system or a database record)</para>

between the XBridgeNG XML format at legacy 3rd party

<title>Limit access to</title>
<para>Sometimes you&apos;ll only want to restrict access to to
only specified host names or IP addresses. This way, only
clients at those specified addresses can use the web services.
Tomcat provides two configuration values for that:
RemoteHostValve and RemoteAddrValve.</para>
<para>These Valves allow you to filter requests by host name or
by IP address, and to allow or deny hosts that match. The
example below restricts access to the ArchiveService from any
machine that is not the local host.</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;Context path=&quot;/XService/ArchiveService&quot; ...&gt;
&lt;Valve className=&quot;org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve&quot;
allow=&quot;127.0.0.1&quot; deny=&quot;&quot;/&gt;
&lt;/Context&gt;</programlisting>
<para>If no allow pattern is given, then patterns that match
the deny attribute patterns will be rejected, and all others
will be allowed. Similarly, if no deny pattern is given,
patterns that match the allow attribute will be allowed, and
all others will be denied.</para>
<para>The &lt;context&gt; element must be placed into the
server.xml file (into &lt;engine&gt;&lt;host&gt;).</para>

<title>Limit access to</title>
<para>Sometimes you&apos;ll only want to restrict access to to
only
specified host names or IP addresses. This way, only
clients at
those specified addresses can use the web services.
Tomcat provides
two configuration values for that:
RemoteHostValve and
RemoteAddrValve.</para>
<para>These Valves allow you to filter requests by host name or
by IP
address, and to allow or deny hosts that match. The
example below
restricts access to the ArchiveService from any
machine that is not
the local host.</para>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;Context

</programlisting>
<para>If no allow pattern is given, then patterns that match
the deny
attribute patterns will be rejected, and all others
will be allowed.
Similarly, if no deny pattern is given,
patterns that match the
allow attribute will be allowed, and
all others will be denied.
