Clients

Describes the types of clients you can generate for service interfaces.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.
Restriction: For service interfaces, the Microsoft Visual Studio Shell supports the generation of console clients only. To generate any other type of client, you must install a full version of Visual Studio.

You can use a generated client to test a service, or to access a service in production.

Note: When you generate a Java client, this produces an EJB or Java Bean in addition to the Java client files. Also during the generation process, the .car file created during deployment is deleted. Therefore, when setting up your Java service interface for production, you must deploy it using the .car file before generating a client.
Note: For JSON Web services, you can access them using a Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)-supported browser via an Asynchronous Javascript and XML (AJAX) request script. See Deployment Configuration Requirements for more information.
