getEPackages(String) method
Use the getEPackages method to return the schema package from the given namespace URI in byte array form.
Purpose
The byte array form can be converted to EPackage form. The EPackage provides the vehicle for describing the schema of the virtual member manager data graph. The namespace URI of the virtual member manager built-in schema is //www.ibm.com/websphere/wim.Because byte array can be serialized, this method can be used by remote clients to retrieve the virtual member manager schema packages from the virtual member manager service and register them in the local JVM.
Parameters
nsURI
The namespace URI of the schema. If nsURI is null, all schemas are returned, including the virtual member manager built-in schema and custom schemas.
Returns
The byte array form of the schema packages.
Exceptions
- WIMException:
- RemoteException:
Signature
