Questions on development of an RTC plugin with WebUI
Hi! I'm absolutely new to Jazz and RTC and I've faced a task of creating a simple plugin in Java (with RTC Eclipse Client).
The idea is the following:
1. User opens a custom web page embedded in RTC.
2. There is a background call to a service plugin that fetches some data
3. The data is displayed in the page
4. After some modifications made by user the data from the page is sent to a different service plugin and thus saved.
So far I've managed to register a test service plugin that should return a "Test Plugin" string when its method is called. I've registered it at com.ibm.team.repository.service.serviceProvider extension point and it extends AbstractService. I can see this service description at the Component Status tab in /jazz/admin:
Suppose the service is com.example.jazz.common.service.IJazzService interface and the method is test().
I have also managed to register a new page at the com.ibm.team.app.web.admin extension point which has some JavaScript in it.
But I have no idea of how I am supposed to make it all work together. I.e. make calls to services from that page and pass data to and from these services. I also need to pass some parameters to these services.
I found some articles on jazz.net/wiki, but they didn't clarify anything for me.
I'll be grateful for any aid on this. Links to useful materials or working code samples would be great.
