The UDDI Programmer's API specification does not directly define APIs to access a UDDI registry for the Java technology. A Java developer can, therefore, access a UDDI registry by using either Java API for XML Registries (JAXR) or UDDI for Java (UDDI4J).
- The JAXR API provides a standard Java API for accessing different kinds of XML registries, such as UDDI and Electronic Business XML, or ebXML.
- The JAXR architecture that enables accessing the UDDI registry is composed of the following:
- JAXR client
- JAXR provider
- Registry providers
- Registries
- The following steps help access the UDDI registries:
- Establish connection with the registry.
- Perform query and update operations.
- Check the output.
- Close the connection.
