Re: [regrep] Accessing a RegistryObject From a UDDI Registry

Thanks to all who replied. Now going in the other direction (ebXML
Registry to UDDI), we can say the following - can someone please confirm
that this is accurate?:

While ebXML registry's Version 2.5 HTTP interface utilizes UUIDs, UDDI's
HTTP interface utilizes uddiKeys (which are keys for entities published
in UDDI registries). An example is as follows:

http://base_uri_of_UDDI_node?tModelKey=uddi:tempuri.com:fish:interface

In the above example, the XML representation of a tModel whose key is
"uddi:tempuri.com:fish:interface" is retrieved.

In the ebXML registry, an "ExternalLink" can be created and associated
with a RegistryObject that represents the WSDL document. This
ExternalLink would specify the UDDI HTTP interface URI shown above:

<rim:ExternalLink 
id="UDDILink" 
externalURI="http://base_uri_of_UDDI_node?tModelKey=uddi:tempuri.com:
 fish:interface">
   <rim:Name>
<rim:LocalizedString value="My WSDL document"/>
   </rim:Name> 
   <rim:Description>
<rim:LocalizedString value="This WSDL document…"/>
   </rim:Description>
</rim:ExternalLink> 

Thanks,
Joe
