Java
You can implement Product Advertising API operations directly in Java. You can also generate and use the Product Advertising API Java Client Side library to simplify your Java implementations. This section explains how to generate the Product Advertising API Java Client Side Library. The next section shows you how to use it to create a request.
Generating the Stubs
You will use the wsimport utility in Java 6 to generate the stubs from the Product Advertising API WSDL, which is located at http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/AWSECommerceService.wsdl.
To generate the Product Advertising API Client Side Library stubs
Go to the directory where you want to generate the stubs and create a "build" directory and a "src" directory.
All of the generated source code will go under "src" folder.
If you are using Eclipse 3.2, create a custom binding to disable "Wrapper Style" code generation.
<jaxws:bindings wsdlLocation="http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/AWSECommerceService.wsdl" xmlns:jaxws="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxws"> <jaxws:enableWrapperStyle>false</jaxws:enableWrapperStyle> </jaxws:bindings>
This step is necessary because Eclipse 3.2 does not support wrapper style generated code. However, if you are an IDE that does support wrapper style generated code, such as NetBeans, this step is not required.
Run the command:
wsimport -d ./build -s ./src -p com.ECS.client.jax http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/AWSECommerceService.wsdl -b jaxws-custom.xml .
You can find the generated stubs in the path, com.ECS.client.jax .
C#
Product Advertising API requires that you have successfully installed Microsoft Visual Studio.
To confirm the installation
Open Visual Studio 2005 C# Express Edition.
Click Help > About Microsoft Visual Studio.
A dialog box opens.The dialog box should list Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.
Create the SOAP proxy in Visual Studio
In your application, you need to add a web reference to the Product Advertising API WSDL you want to use.
To add a web reference
On the Project menu, click Add Web Reference.
In the URL box, type http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/AWSECommerceService.wsdl, and then click Go.
Click Add Reference.
A new Web References folder is added to the Solution Explorer.
You can now reference the SOAP proxy using your project namespaces. For example:
using GettingStartedGuideSample.com.amazonaws.ecs;
Perl
Run the following commands to verify that you have installed all of the necessary Perl modules:
perl -MDigest::HMAC_SHA1 -e 1 perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 1 perl -MLWP -e 1 perl -MXML::XPath -e 1 perl -MDate::Format -e 1
You should not receive any error messages.
PHP
To verify your PHP installation
Use a command-line interface to run the following command:
php -version
This command assumes you are either in your PHP installation directory or it is in your PATH system variable.
The response should be similar to the following:
PHP 5.1.2 (cli) (built: Jan 11 2006 16:40:00) Copyright (c) 1997-2006 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2006 Zend Technologies
