Last night I had to retrieve content and metadata from Sharepoint 2003.
Sharepoint exposes everything through Web Services for remote/non-.NET
clients. Microsoft services have some funny signatures and there's
plenty of unsigned ints and other junk. Long story short: my code went
from 500 lines down to 5 when I fired up the Web Services wizard,
grabbed the WSDL and generated the Java client for a couple of
Sharepoint services. Amazingly enough, it even recognized that the Web
Service required authentication, prompted me for credentials and cached
them for subsequent lookups. Now that's what I call service! I had to
tweak the createCall() method in the stub to deal with credentials and
configure the wsdd on the client to get past NTLM auth but much of the
work was done by WTP and Axis emitter.
I ran into my fair share of bugs with WTP but when it works, it works
really well.
