WADL file doesn't work in NetBeans

[Monty Taylor]

Trying to consume the launchpad API in NetBeans through the Services tab.

I click "Add Web Service"

It asks for a URL where it can download the WADL file. That doesn't work, but I get help downloading the WADL file with a python script and upload that as a local WADL file.

I get a web service, but I get no usable API resources.

I'm attaching a WADL file which does work.

I worked with Monty on IRC and we determined that it doesn't support
using resource_types to refer to resources from multiple locations, something that is
pretty essential to launchpad's wadl I think.

Thanks,

James

James, just for my convenience can you paste in a bit of Launchpad's WADL that Netbeans finds problematic? I can't wrap my head around "using resource_types to refer to resources from multiple locations" without an example.

[James Westby (james-w)]

I mean using "resource_type" rather than declaring everything inside "resource" tags.

Thanks,

James
