About the OHF Bridge

The OHF Bridge is a simplified reference implementation of OHF components, primarily for use with a Web services wrapper. Right now, the Bridge supports the OHF IHE actors, including XDS, PIX, PDQ, and ATNA. The Bridge is built using Apache Axis v2 and uses RPC-style SOAP messaging to handle transactions. The tested runtime environment uses Tomcat 5.5 and the Eclipse Equinox/OSGi server-side servlet container.

Project Status

April 15, 2008 - OHF Bridge v0.3.0 released!

Getting Started

In general, the OHF Bridge is designed to be accessed via a Web service wrapper. However, it is possible to call it directly from an OSGi environment or as a POJO if you are looking for a simpler integration path with OHF. For more information about installing the Bridge, see downloading and installing the OHF Bridge.
